...

The "left" and "right" are both lying to the people and splitting wedge issues (read: hairs). At least that's the impression I get. They both try to paint themselves as different, but really they differ on a few wedge issues and do not care about addressing real problems. Some wedge issues are bigger than others, but the two sides don't really try to make themselves different where it counts in my book.

Quigley was right. We want two more or less identical parties with two completely different sets of scoundrels, vying to take & hold power. Thats good for America,

The problem at the moment is that the Republican Party has allowed itself to be taken over by an extremist faction who is in the process of throwing out the moderates and progressives. Its a real shame and will probably take 12 to 20 years to fix. In the meantime, Democrats will run the country, by default.

Its too bad.
