U left out that wilson was far more New Jersey than Virgina
This nonsense of GOP always good and DEMS always bad is so BECKIAN and flawed
I man think about it john stennis or olympia snowe?
Some freepers are such sheep
i guess you’re agreeing with me since i was making the same point that blind R=good, D=bad like TheBigIf keeps going to is sad party politics and detracts from really discussing the bigger picture (which some corrupt D & R party leaders have counted on for a long time).
Not sure where you pull the “Beckian” from though. He’s ripped both parties so consistently from his years on CNNHN to FNC that I’m pretty sure there MUST be a better metaphor.
IMO, D politicians today are at best 85%+ bad (as in big, central government solves all the world’s problems), and R’s are probably still 60%+ but at least heading in the right direction (which is the only reason I registered a couple years ago, so I can get involved earlier and not have to choose between progressive and progressive-lite like in ‘08). As we saw with the party-line spending votes of the past few years, the “blue-dog” D is a thing of mythology.
Unfortunately, WAY too many people just tow the party lines, so whether or not they believe in a big central government, they vote to maintain and grow it because they don’t pay attention to the issues. Sadly, the founders’ knowledge of history that the only way to keep a central government from evolving to tyranny is to distribute the power as much as possible (politically between branches and geographically between states, counties, etc.) is a lesson lost for many generations. (My guess is it hasn’t been taught in public schools since circa 1865.)
