"which is the way they wants it" --points for those who get the reference

American politics is such a shameless circus of false dilemmas between Boolean illusions. Left/Right Lib/Con Rep/Dem Yes/No On/Off Up/Down. When the insanity ends and the dust and ashes settle will anyone's life have truly changed one way other another? Or will people just rest more easily with the silly notion that their "Team" won one for the gipper?

Sigh....I'm in the wrong business. I should be selling political pennants with big Ds and Rs on them. I could retire a wealthy individual either way.

All hail...ah who am I kidding...can't be arsed one way or another.

I just know that I have lots of work tomorrow, not enough hours in the day and yet more government boondoogles and insanity-riddled ideas to help fund.

Vive la republique....or whatever misnomer the public chooses to apply now.

I think you all can figure out the answer to that one.
