Interesting how many of the GOP picks are just as bad as the Dem choices.

I'd say that the mask is off: it is now plain to anyone that there is no difference between the Democrat and Republican party… oh, the Republican party may claim they're on our side, but ask yourself this: what has the opposition party really honestly and vigorously opposed from the Democrat's agenda?

  1. Fast & Furious?
    Then why has no-one been punished?
  2. Roe v. Wade?
    Then why is it always regarded as a losing proposition, even as its public support is now in the minority?
    (Also, why is it that the constitutional right to medical privacy applies to abortion but not, say, the Affordable Care Act?)
  3. Gun control? / The Second amendment?
    Oh they're fine with common sense gun-control like we have now&hallip; and traditional/long-standing restrictions like the GCA prohibited persons.
    (Also, why is such an obviously ex post facto, even by the judiciary's watered down definition, law held to be valid?)
    When was the last time the Republican party pushed for repeal of the NFA or GCA?
  4. Fiscal [Ir]Responsibility?
    The Republicans did not push the issue of operating for multiple years in the absence of a budget.
    (The Congress is required by law to pass a budget.)
  5. Amnesty?
    Just look at their stances and sound-bytes; if it weren't for the upcoming election they'd have already shoved it down our throats.
IN THE GRIM DARKNESS OF THE FAR FUTURE THERE IS ONLY GOVERNMENT.

The problem is not the parties, it is the media. That is where the real power lies.

The Republicans are terrified of the old media, and this administration has greater collusion with it, whether voluntarily, or through extortion and blackmail, than at any other time in our history, except perhaps during WWII.

I admit, there is little separation, if any, between the Democrats and the old media. They are completely entertwined.
