I don't consider being an honest person as being held to a higher standard.
But I guess if you view the rest of society as something that largely dwells below the standard of simple honesty then those in public office would be seen as being above everyone else.
I don't personally set any of these people above myself or in general the people they serve, but when they are found to be below the level of the people they serve they need to get the fuck out.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
