The Loneliness of Politics

Description

A nice piece by :iconrayn44:, this scene is something that would happen in the times right before the start of the Clone Wars.  Conradin is still a young Senator in the Republic, and Barriss Offee a padawan of the Jedi Order.  They try to enjoy a meal as friends....but the holovid news in the background shows a fierce, live debate between Chancellor Palpatine and the Separatist leader Count Dooku, a debate that will tear apart the Republic with accusations of corruption and the pounding drums of war.  For them, the debate onscreen is a reminder of the wall between them, and the feelings they have.

On a more important note, this piece represents how I felt during the 2004 elections in The U.S.A.  A lonely time when Idealism was trampled upon by arrogance and self righteousness.

That is the sad truth of politics. They are sadly human. And humans will put their own ambitions above the interests of the many.
