I think part of being a politican is that the moment you get elected & go to Washington you instantly lose whatever intelligence you had or thought you had because serving in US Govt means going against everything you did to get elected.
In other words, being stupid in Washington is actually very helpful becuase everything that is done in Washington does not have one ounce of logic or common sense. Right?

they are all the same. Power hungry maniacs that will do anything to gain a vote. Look at Hillary and Mccain. Both are flip floppers.

I have to agree with what you say. I think that politicans say and do whatever they can to get elected and then have convient permenant memory loss. I always thought that in this country the goverment was for the people and by the people, but all I can see is the goverment serving certain groups agendas. Sad but true. So no democrats are not better nor are they smarter . all politicans are the same.

The Democrats do offer more support of the poor and middle class, and may even be more protective of our civil rights, however, Democrats and Republicans both voted for the Patriot Act by huge majorities.
You points are well taken.

They make speeches about they must have taxes, and every politician knows what is being done in Alaska. Alaska Pays all their residents with earth rights and doesn’t tax their residents. This makes the politicians liars!
They make speeches to get elected and make promises about what they will do for us. They say nothing about getting every dime of lobby money to do what big biz wants that’s opposite what they promised you they would do. That makes them cheats!
They stole your grandmother’s retirement money from SS. Now you face getting nothing for your SS payments. That makes them thieves!
They tax us, but they know the foreign companies pay no taxes on the goods they sell here. The goods are sold then bought on paper in a foreign port to skate the tax laws. Thus eliminating their profit on paper to cheat the US out of the taxes they owe. This makes them backstabbers!
They take lobby money to put earmarks and pork in every law that passes their desk. Then they do photo ops, a news clips to promote themselves as doing something good for us and America. So they corkscrew us!
They make back room deals and give our tax money to foreigners who build factories with our money. Then they write laws that send our jobs overseas. This makes them dirty dealers!
So lets total all this up. They lie, cheat, steal, backstab, corkscrew, and dirty deal. HELL their Flim Flam Men! Just like in the George C. Scott movie “ The Flim Flam Man”!
They are called the “ Honorable” Senator or Representative. Hell Flim Flam Men have NO honor what so ever! They’re crooks, criminals for God’s sake!
The BBC has film of ALL of them going in and out of Abramoff’s restaurant. That’s THE place in DC to get loaded with lobby money. The BBC has been running this story, and trying to get the US media to run it too. The US media refuses to run the story.
It’s time to take America back! Get registered! VOTE! Vote for anyone that’s not a Democrat or a Republican. They have ALL the power and ALL the control. They must bear ALL the responsibility for their gross mismanagement, abysmally poor judgment, lies, cheating, thefts, back stabs, corkscrews, and dirty deals! It’s time to put THEM in the unemployment line!

the only thing democrats are good at is name calling and mud slinging their opponents. but when asked about any ideas, they have no clue.
for instance, every liberal just KNOWS that what bush is doing to stop terrorism is wrong. but if you ask them how they would deal with it, they stumble and stutter and give alot of "umms... and ehhhs...." and when they can't come up with anything, they go back to slamming bush.
God help us if they win in 2008. you'll see alot of terrorists praising allah.
