“and Republicans believe wars stimulate the economy.” is that why Kennedy and Johnson escalated the war in Vietnam, because they were Republicans?
My point really being neither party has clean hands. Very few politicians operate with the citizens of the United States in mind. Most cater to special interest groups and lobbyists and the public be damned. I think your too hung up on Republican and Democratic labels and taking a side. Look for faults on both sides because none of the politician care about you.

If I were Al Gore, I would be completely disenfranchised with politics. I’m a Floridian, and I know exactly what Bush/Cheney did to steal that election. It’s basically treasonous. And must I name the huge list of Republicans who held office under Bush only to resign and take extremely high paying jobs for the same companies they provided favors to while in office? By the way, Gore has donated most of his speech earnings to a group that focuses on global warming. I am a capitalist, so I don’t begrudge anyone hitting it–I do choose my poisons carefully, and Republicans believe wars stimulate the economy.

I agree that the Democrats are no angels. The Republicans are certainly not but just what group of people generated massive wealth in the last year?
My opinion is that their is little difference between Republicans and Democrats. Did you know that a Democrat named Al Gore accumulated over 100 million dollars in the last year or two. Yes a Democrat generated massive wealth for himself. That’s the reason of course he did not seek the presidential nomination again.
