The only thing dumber than a Democrat or a Republican is when those pricks work together. You see, in our two-party system, the Democrats are the party of no ideas and the Republicans are the party of bad ideas. It usually goes something like this.

Things are gonna be different! Things are gonna be great!' Screwed again! No flying cars! No flying cars!
