It's that sort of thinking that keeps the bums from The Party or the other The Party (aside from a few ideological details, as far as I'm concerned, there ain't a whole lot of difference between the two monolithic political machines) in office. If more people realized that the world is not black-and-white, then perhaps politicians will have to start earning their votes. I wish the Tea Party wasn't choked with such religious dagma (well the Paliners anyway, not sure just how Libertarians the Paulers are), otherwise I might egg them on to kick the bums out of office.
