The recent Obama message to school kids is a classic example. When Bush did it, the Dems bitched. Now that Obama did it, the Repubs bitch. Did it ever occur to either side that the President of the United States should be reaching out to our students on a regular basis, be a role model, no matter what party he (she?) belongs to?
Another classic example is the Deficit. Seems to me that it was Bush that got us hear, yet ironic I read the other day that the Deficit has never been higher than it was under Obama. Hello? Obama's been in office for six months, not eight years. It wasn't Obama that got us here.
I just hope Obama can unfuck us.
But then the Dems will say "Oh, the recession is over, and it's because of our savior Obama". Bullshit. Any trained monkey will have gotten us out of this, it's just gonna take a little time.

The whole two party system is an illusion.
There is only one party and they all represent the corporations. They just get half the people to say things that will appeal to one part of the country and half the party to say things that will appeal to other part of the country. The entire democrat/republican fight is a show. They all go out to dinner with each other and socialize with one and another as friends then go on the news and pretend to fight about issues. It's just like professional wrestling.
