And they wonder why we say there is little difference btn the 2 parties...few high level Democrats are Standing Up for People, and those few wonderful reps who do are referred to as the "far left, teaparty Dems"...its ridiculous. And obvious. I like the idea of laughing at it. Sure beats getting pissed off at utter third way nonsense!
