Saint Patrick's Day - My version and the origin of the word politicks

This is my status from facebook which is my little version of St. Patrick, or St. Paddy's day as colloquially known here in Ireland and the origin of the meaning of the word and system of politics
Given his uber cool powers from the main man himself, St. Pat rid the isle of reptilia that had been plaguing it. Peace reigned throughout; however, all was not as it seemed. The vanquished had merely shifted into various other forms whose only means of sustenance was to live off the life force of others in the land. Thus we see the origin of the process and the word 'politics'. [poly - many; ticks - well you know ]
