They both can suck my ass, and any of you that swing hard to the left or right are brainwashed monkies.

The only way to get the budget under control is to do something both parties doesn't want to do.... tax everyone, including the rich more and cut back on a lot of the benefits. Obama wants more benefits for people (poor) not less so that isn't going to fly either.
