>>I haven't reached this level of nihilistic cynicism.<<

If you are referring to the nihilistic cynicism exhibited by Larry Summers in saying that AIG bonuses are a "done deal" and the admins "hands are tied", well, Larry's pretty hard to top in that regard.

>>Saying "a pox on both their houses" solves nothing, achieves nothing, advances to nowhere.<<

Au contraire. It solves everything if no solutions are ever offerred from within the system. If they are unwilling to adapt and represent the real interest of the people the cynically claim to "represent", then fcuk them. Time for the Whigs to make a comeback, methinks, or some populist equivalent.
