Is replacing right wing pugs with right wing dems a significant improvement?

There really isn't much more to talk about.  And even if there were, it would just add to the sadness that B. Obama is clearly going to have a very right wing Presidency. 

 

In a way it all comes back to advertising since presidential and congressional elections have mostly degenerated to a contest between two businesses, and the one that wins is the one whose advertising campaign successfully sells the soap.  However, we should remember that "advertising" has NOTHING to do with facts and truth; indeed exactly the opposite, since its goal is to delude people with elaborately constructed lies to get them to buy things they neither need nor can afford.

 

Well, we bought the Obama soap. We really didn't have much choice since McCain would almost certainly have been worse, but that doesn't change the fact that the Obama soap of right wing dem appointments holds very little hope of washing any national/international hands.

 

Another way to look at this is that BOTH of the two parties are far to the right of the vast majority of American citizens and voters, and we just go saddled with the one that is not "quite" so far to the right as the pug party.

 

Of course, such a comparison is really moot since we haven't had a truly two party system for decades.  No, what we've got is a ONE dem/pug party system which:

 

(l.) has become our prison, and

 

(2.) is utterly and absolutely under the control the American Dictatorship of the Rich, and

 

(3.) therefore basically NEVER expresses the will of the American people because our political system/prison has been bought body and soul by the Greek God like elites (perhaps we should rename our country to the United States of the Elites).
