Really if a political party have existed for more than 20 - 30 years, it is doing it wrong, and its sure as hell not making the really unpopular decisions they are supposed to do.
And the longer it have existed the more it have failed, and quite a few here date back to when the king finally relinquished power and we became a democracy.

I don't know about where you live, but in the US it doesn't matter who you vote for. Established parties will always win the important seats. The two parties will never work together except when ensuring they never lose control of the US government. There's too much money to be lost for them.

George Washington rightfully warned us against political parties. Political Parties allow amassed power, force representatives to vote for things not in the best interest of their constituents, create division, do not allow representatives individual votes, create unnecessary power struggles, are the reason we need term limits. I could go on, I have heard the arguments for political parties, but frankly they're weak and the small benefits do not outweigh the huge negatives. Of course more dangerous is centralized power and the political class. Money is nothing without power, power over others is the most dangerous thing of all.

The road to hell are paved with the good intentions of bad politicians, and the ladder out of hell are made of excuses from the same people.


So its a short ladder so you better prepare for a long stay.

Not true at all. He's dead, but his ideas and his ideals live on in this thing we call the Constitution.

Really ? here i was thinking i was all original, then again i was a amped up punk in those days.
I had that album on vinyl, but never restocked when i changed over to CD.
I saw Ozzy in concert in The Danish capitol around 1988 i think it was.
Not the biggest fan of his solo stuff, but i have it all with Black sabbath.

Lots of Americans think the Constitution is still great and still valid. What the forefathers wrote still applies today.

Very true, but not sure what your point is... Lots of them up here where I live. One hillbilly neighbor of mine has two master degrees, one in math, and the other in engineering. Another hillbilly neighbor is a MD.

Yup. We really don't need anyone else from Leftiville, we have more than our fair share.
