Daily reminder that American politics is a scam
I don't understand how so many people buy into partisan politics.
[b][i][u]Republicans[/u][/i][/b] - been crying over Obamacare and replacing it for years. Have had the majority for several months, haven't repealed or replaced Obamacare or done anything of real import.
[b][i][u]Democrats[/u][/i][/b] - cried over Bush, the war, illegal warrantless wiretapping......for years. Last 1/2 of Bush's last term they had control, winning that majority by those stances. What did they do with that majority? Approved every war bill that came their way, approved everything Bush wanted, and then voted to rewrite FISA make the wiretapping legal, not only legal but [u]retroactively[/u] legal.
Then the trend is always they cry the other party obstructed them from passing anything despite that other party being the minority.
I bet they crack open a cold one and have a good laugh over the general populace wasting their time bickering over petty shit instead of working together.

But people still feed the system. Stop voting, stop pushing the notion that the governemnt is us.

And this is the primary reason I don't typically talk politics. It's a world of hypocrisy.

12 RepliesThey don't give 2 flying fish sticks. As long as they can cry for their "side", the people seem to be happy & keep voting for them. Fire the lot of them, strip them of all their wealth, investments & healthcare. Then stick the lot of them in the shittiest old folks home you can find.
