So you are saying that Republicans HAVE been responsive to our needs? The joke on us is that we operate under the illusion that we actually do have a two party system.

The last time we actually had a two party system was very briefly during the Reagan administration and even he was gotten to on the illegal issue, with his "One time Amnesty".

Before his administration and sense then both parties are herding us in the same direction, just like cattle. To not see that clearly by now is to be blindly with the program. Let's list how much worse we have been off since the Republicans took charge of D.C.

Bush destroyed Clinton's bill regrading immgrant support by a sponser and placed the responsibility for immigrants back off their sponsors and placed the responsibility for their care and feeding right back on the taxpayers back.

Bush's first trip out of the country was to Mexico to meet with Vicente Fox, and in their discussions at the Crawford ranch laying agreements to melt the USofA, Mexico, and Canada into one border-less trade zone, which they both openly discussed in Monterey Mexico and Canada. V. Fox in Monterey and Bush in Canada.

The only thing I have seen Bush threaten to VETO is the ability of vets to receive both retirement and disability benefits simultaneously, and any Illegal Immigration bill that doesn't include amnesty.

Then there is the "Farm Bill" a boon for corporate farming, the Education Bill, more good money thrown after bad, promoting of the FTAA treaty, the Trans Mexico corridor, the much abused Patriot Act, his U-turn from chasing Ben Laden to crushing Saddam. His devastating "Road to Peace Plan" that is a loaded gun to the head of Israel.
I'm sure many other could add to this list.

He has dug a pit for us and in busy pushing us in it aided and abetted by a liberal congress and Senate. There is no way they can be worse than democrats because they are democrats in sheep's clothing. To cling to the illusion that we actually have a two party system in this country is pitiful self delusion. They are both herding us in the same direction the pit.

Have you attempted to get through to any government agency lately? Give it a try, after a mile long list of approved options if your query or question has nothing to do with their approved list you are referred to the operator, when you press zero for the operator you are told the person you are attempting to contact isn't available.

Government agencies have cut themselves off from all forms of contact or protest from the average citizen. Many of your representatives have recordings that tell you right up front they are not accepting call, emails, or faxes.

This is no longer, and hasn't been for some time a representative government. The people have had every avenue cut off for redress of grievances, even the ability to starve D.C. out by refusing to pay taxes to keep the beast going.

So you can stuff your resentment of conservatives where the sun don't shine. Your politicians have earned their reputations. Now they can suffer for them in November. Not that they care.

I bet you they don't even count the votes anymore. Right?

"Your politicians"..."Not that they care."

Listen up MissAmericanPottedMeatSandwich, you aren't a Republican, so why the hell do you care what Republicans do? If you're going to vote third-party, go tell the Democrats at DU...they'll be damned happy to hear about it.

Your posts are emblematic of the transparent horse$hit flying around this board lately...you people are moronic!
