But given a third choice that embraces civil liberties for all and at the same time supports an economically feasible, fact-based ideal for the future of government?
I'll take that over R&D any day.

Well, yes, of course.
That really has nothing (whatsoever) to do with saying Dems and Republicans are exactly the same.

They are the same, in the sense that I view anyone who votes for either party is a traitor.
Fuck people who vote for the lesser of two evils. If you continue to vote R or D, you are the problem. It's pretty hard to blame the fat-cats when so many idiots just hand them god-like dominion over the people.
I'd take that power if it were handed to me, and so would anyone else. I wish the American people would stop blaming senile rich men for their problems, and actually take some fucking responsibility.
