So how do you think the Tea Baggers did?

I'm just curious....which one of you, if any, has ever stood for office?
Have you even voted?
Y'all got all these answers, but what have you done about it?
It's easy to criticize from the cheap seats.

Yea........that's what I thought.

I vote in every election here in Canada.

I don't run for office, it isn't something that particularly appeals to me.

By your demented logic, nobody except experienced politicians have the right to an opinion. With such narrow minded views, it's surprising you can even see the sun from time to time.

Not my logic, pal. By my reckoning, the politician actually has "less" of a "right" to an opinion.....(In a philosophical discussion of the topic...) as they are elected to represent the opinions of their constituents, not their own. At least that's how it works, here in our republic.

Not sure how you work it, there in your monarchy.

Unfortunately, just like you guys, we have to deal with Partisan Politics where nothing ever seems to get done. Politicians everyone always toe the Party line, regardless of the wishes of their constituents.

Is it just my own cynicism, or has that actually gotten MUCH worse in the past 10-15 years?

Yea.....like everyone can run for office. Dude, you have been criticizing from the cheap seats forever. What the fuck have you ever done? Let me guess...mayor of Bumfuck Ohio or whatever metropolis you live in? No wait...maybe you are a failed tea bagger and are pissed because Sara Palin didnt endorse your campaign.
How's that jack off machine doing for you. Still haven't seen one or even heard of anybody selling it. Got a link?
