Touché, but when you reach the situation, as we have here, when neither side are particularly worthy of the voting system, then it does make you question how far detached the political system has become from the public that it is supposed to serve.
Not that I recommend drastic change, after all, the system may have its faults but it's still better than many others, but I think those in it need a reminder of who they are supposed to be serving.

I guess this is the thread where we repeat discredited political talking points in a desperate attempt to make them true.

And know why people are talking about Big Bird? Because it's funny. It's funny to single out a line item that makes up 0.0000638687%* of the federal budget and use that as an example of how you're going to solve the country's debt problems. It's pathetic and shows how politicians are worthless ideologues.

Why must you distort what happened Mookie? Romney was asked a direct question on whether he would continue to fund NPR. He said he wouldn't. He never said, implied, or claimed that it would solve the country's debt problems.

As far as our debt goes, I don't suppose the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan had anything to do with it!?!

And heck yes, lets do away with regulating our banks, we can trust them can't we!

Good point. The US will survive. Thanks may change back and forth though. I just can't get spun up over the doom sayers any more.
