Politicians on both sides of this wretched 2 party system have contributed to exactly where we are today. They all take money from special interests, they all vote for bills with ridiculous earmarks, loaded with pork.
I carry no great pride for either "side" at this point.

Seems it would be a greater use of effort and intellect to start looking at ways to start the long and arduous repairs we are painfully obligated to begin. And to with participating in the party wars.
Ah! Common sense! This is exactly what I was trying to get for a response! My post was to point out that blaming one party for our problems and carrying forward to the current candidates doesn't work.

There seems to be a group on the Political Thread that blames McCain/Republicans, through osmosis from President Bush's administration, to be the fault/reason for all that is wrong in this country. I expected more Bush/Republican bashing or defense of the Democratic President and I'm happy to have a response that one cannot carry "the blame game' forward and that we need solutions, not blame.
