right ... the "they're all corrupt" is the standard Bush apologist smokescreen. I'm glad people here see it for what it is. No party is perfect and pragmatism must rule. These people have to be elected which is why some kind of pristine attitude towards special interests will never prevail. Despite this backdrop some parties do good jobs and others like Bush fail. That is obvious to all at this point, except the idiots that support Sarah Palin. What cracks me up is when they take the stance that both parties are the same, they think they are being entirely reasonable and cooperative. Its infuriating because they are completely ignoring all the bad stuff that has happened under Bush and the GOP for the past 8 years. Stuff that exceeds anything either party has done in the prior 50 years. It is stuff so bad that if the federal gov't were a private corp, Bush and company would have been fired long ago.......without a golden parachute. And then there is the not-as-bad stuff like when Sen. Frist who was an MD looked at a vid of T. Schaivo and declared unprofessionally.....she's still alive. Their arrogance and indifference to the truth is enough make me want to hit someone and then there is Katrina, Iraq, the economy, et al. I want real apologies from these dudes and not this copout crap that both parties are bad.
