    The problem is one party makes no pretense they have any other purpose than to suck billionaire cock. In fact they take triumphant joy in it.

    The other party does makes the pretense (even sometimes in contrast with reality), so sometimes even by sheer accident they do things that benefits somebody besides the billionaires.

    Which explains why the billionaires are going batshit insane trying to defeat them by any means legal or illegal.

    It is now being reported that Holly Paz, a supervisor with the IRS, sat in during the interviews for the Inspector General's audit. Hmmm...think an IRS employ is going to tell the truth about his/her boss when said boss is sitting across the table as well?

    This is SS/North Korean stuff...you simply cannot make it up.

    Again, Butters, you assign special qualities to yourself but lock everyone on the other side into your vapid generalizations. And then there are us Independents and the swing voters, too.

    You're not the only person who can avoid marching in lockstep.
    My vote was not for Obama. It was against the fucked-up Republican Party. When the fucked-up Republican Party fixes itself, it might get us back.

    Hmm, perhaps you could refresh my memory about my rants about W about Katrina.

    You voted for the status quo instead of the "fucked up" Republican Party? Yes, I believe for one hot second you are independent.

    Why would I care what you believe? You're Butters.

    Have an open mind sometimes. Serious flaws in both parties.

    Except one party has adopted as its default position the denial of science, in order to increase its appeal to the imbecile base.

    Or you could be an intellectual fraud like Star Man and claim no fealty to either party - all while consistently hammering the policies of a single one.

    Well, that's a bit harsh. But the small-tent philosophy of some of the GOP is hurting the party.

    There are plenty of former Republicans who are angry that the party veered hard to the far right. I'm only one of them. And they should come back to the middle.
     
  11. You don't have an open mind if you don't vote a straight GOP ticket.
