Right, but the statement wasn't "Any CAREER politician" It was one of Republicans and Democrats. Not that this matters, since your statement is also false. Using such broad stereotypes, are used to prevent critical thinking, and cause people to react emotionally.
To see the fallacy of this statement, you only need to define the words "Career" and "Politician" and realize that these terms both together or apart can be used to attack almost anyone. Don't see Jimmy Carter as a career politician, just adjust your definition a bit, and wallah! Habitat for humanity? More like Habitat for Hitler youth!
