isnt it funny how both parties blame each other, while both sides are just as uninformed as the other? yes, uninformed. who are you to think you know everything about the parties or the government? your a nobody, an normal civilian who will probably claim to be some government official "in the know". get a life people. lets be constructive instead of blaming each other. maybe large parties should be broken up alltogether...

Perhaps we need a reminder from time to time
Quote:
PERHAPS the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defence of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason. 1
As a long and violent abuse of power, is generally the Means of calling the right of it in question (and in Matters too which might never have been thought of, had not the Sufferers been aggravated into the inquiry) and as the King of England hath undertaken in his own Right, to support the Parliament in what he calls Theirs, and as the good people of this country are grievously oppressed by the combination, they have an undoubted privilege to inquire into the pretensions of both, and equally to reject the usurpations of either.2
In the following sheets, the author hath studiously avoided every thing which is personal among ourselves. Compliments as well as censure to individuals make no part thereof. The wise, and the worthy, need not the triumph of a pamphlet; and those whose sentiments are injudicious, or unfriendly, will cease of themselves unless too much pains are bestowed upon their conversion.3
The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind. Many circumstances have, and will arise, which are not local, but universal, and through which the principles of all Lovers of Mankind are affected, and in the Event of which, their Affections are interested. The laying of a Country desolate with Fire and Sword, declaring War against the natural rights of all Mankind, and extirpating the Defenders thereof from the Face of the Earth, is the Concern of every Man to whom Nature hath given the Power of feeling; of which Class, regardless of Party Censure, is the AUTHOR4
P. S. The Publication of this new Edition hath been delayed, with a View of taking notice (had it been necessary) of any Attempt to refute the Doctrine of Independance: As no Answer hath yet appeared, it is now presumed that none will, the Time needful for getting such a Performance ready for the Public being considerably past.5
Who the Author of this Production is, is wholly unnecessary to the Public, as the Object for Attention is the Doctrine itself, not the Man. Yet it may not be unnecessary to say, That he is unconnected with any Party, and under no sort of Influence public or private, but the influence of reason and principle. Philadelphia, February 14, 1776."6
Common sence

Bad choice for a name if you want to be taken seriously as a centrist.
I agree that a lot of the time people talk out of their @$$ because they don't know everything our leaders know, but everyone is entitled to their opinion, no matter how uninformed it may be.
As far as breaking the Dems and Repubs up altogether, how could that possibly be done? At election times the platforms of the smaller parties (Green, Libertarian, etc) are generally adopted by one of the larger parties to try and win those votes for their party.

Sorry gregg I tend to agree with him. Both paries are currupt and honestly I hate his name also. I am very liberal and find people telling me how to run my life very disturbing. If I want to marry a man its my choice (I dont).
We do need another option. But if you want to be treated as open minded you need a new name. My weak friend.

The only people who think that both parties are the same are republicans. It actually makes them look good to say that. Pretty pathetic, huh?

Someone who answered this question said that "Dems don't like people who send e-mails of a sexual nature to 16 year old boys." Well Barney Frank was running a prositution ring out of his living room. He is a democrat. Check your facts before you post here please.
