It helps to think of as falling into two groups: the deceivers and the deceived, or the assholes and the morons, respectively. Even the most craven legislators fall into this manipulative asshole group; they stand for nothing, instead embracing the beliefs of their propagandized/ignorant constituencies. Of all the horrible moves they make, the ones that cry "we'll show 'em! We'll deluge the country with more <insert state name> unwanted children!" are easily the cruelest.
