Bailout shows both parties are a problem

Whether it be congressional middle-finger methodology or their "peasant go away" mindset the "masters" have told us to get lost on the bailout matter.

When did "representative" morph into "master?" Between the ills of a form of corrupt dictatorship as typified by Bush style Republicanism and the benumbing communistic nonsense of an extreme left ideology lie bi-partisan dreams, which means voters have to face off two gorillas instead of one.

Voters encourage the political disease with brain dead views like: "Once a Republican (or Democrat) always a Republican (or Democrat)."

It is no wonder that things like Sarah Palin being nominated can happen or that Barack Obama and John McCain can allow a pork-loaded Wall Street bailout bill for the privileged to be passed to President Bush, whereupon he promptly signed away all his anti-socialism fervor for a socialist payout. It's a bit late in the "decider's" disastrous career for a flip-flop. Did socialism's "sickness" disappear under some magic abracadabra rule? Certainly capitalism got trashed. Anyone enthusiastic now for privatization of health and retirement?

Remember the GOP's now-ruined "Trickle Down" theories? Lets try a "Trickle up" concept wherein working Joe gets the tax breaks and the rich get the benefits of Joe's spending.
