Look at Republicans...They had total power for a few years during George W. Bush's term.
Did they cut spending. Hell no! They raised it.
Did they get the govt. out of our personal lives? Hell no! They began spying on all of us and searching us at airports like WE are criminals.
And how about their favorite topic: Abortion. They had complete control and could have passed all kinds of federal legislation that would have made it harder to get an abortion. But they didn't.

The Democrats? They had total power for a couple of years in Obama's term (and of course decades and decades of power in both houses over the last century).
They claimed they wanted national "health care". They gave us a giant insurance company takeover. (just got a letter from BlueCross/BlueShield informing me that my premium is going up AGAIN to $1,063 a month for me, my wife, and my daughter).
Did they raise taxes the way they always promise to do? Hell no!
Did they stop the Patriot Act and stop the govt. from spying on us. Nope, they did the exact opposite.

These two parties ARE the cancer that is destroying our country. In case nobody noticed...those two parties are the ones who have been in power all along.
