When this election happened the country spoke.
It was screwed up with the republican party, its screwed up with the democratic party. Not that the Tea party will fix it either, we need a clean sweep of all the politicians with people who really represent Americans and American interest, not just their own pockets and their "lifetime benefits".
Say what you want but our political system is broken no matter who is in office.


Yup. Throw them all out! And don't "RE" elect anybody!

Check out P.J. O'Rourke's books on politics, in particular his "Parliament of Whores" and "Don't vote, it just encourages the bastards!"

From Parliament of Whores:


Authority has always attracted the lowest elements in the human race. All through history mankind has been bullied by scum. Those who lord it over their fellows and toss commands in every direction and would boss the grass in the meadow about which way to bend in the wind are the most depraved kind of prostitutes. They will submit to any indignity, perform any vile act, do anything to achieve power. The worst off-sloughings of the planet are the ingredients of sovereignty. Every government is a Parliament of Whores. The trouble is, in a democracy the whores are us.

—Parliament of Whores
