It's all political theatre; it's a sham. "They" give us the illusion that we have a 'side' to choose from, and that side will be on OUR side. It's not true. I've heard it said before; apparently, from people who live in D.C., that they have seen politicians who are on opposite sides of the aisle, fighting tooth-and-nail on TV, stirring up the constituents on both sides to also 'fight' against each other, only to see those same politicians; when out in public at say; a restaurant; yucking it up with each other; having a grand time together; only to see them the next day on TV; shouting and yelling at each other again. It's a show; we are the spectators; cheering for our team; not realizing that they are ALL on the SAME team. We've been duped; big time.

You're right Cammie. The Left-Right paradigm is a sham.
Sad. It's not what the founding fathers wanted. It's what happens when we refuse to hold fast to what is right; and always long for 'something new'.
The old ways; many times (Not all of course) are usually the best.
