yoo hoo, people .. we don't choose our friends because they wear a red shirt or a blue shirt, we choose them because of who they are and what they stand for. should our elected officials not be held under the same policy? i say abolish the "party" affiliations and get back to basics. who holds the same beliefs, who is honest, who best represents YOU? get big business and money grubbing greed out of control. cap campaign spending, cap salary and benefits, and most importantly cap the underlying control held over your own head.
i'm far from saying the issues at hand aren't worthy of time, consideration, blood, sweat and tears .. i just see so many people losing sight of reality and getting swept up in the political circus. what a shame.
