It seems that most on this forum are split pretty much down the middle when it comes to political views.

I've noticed a few here seem to share my view that both parties, Repub, and Dem, or Right/Left, however you wish to categorize it, has, in the most recent past, at least led us down the same path, towards the same goal.

The end game still seems a little vague, but to some is becoming clearer.
While there may be some detail differences, that are given a great deal of lip service to maintain the illusion of idelogical difference, the broader view shows much more divergence......

Is there really any difference between the two parties? Or is the perceived division, actually just a diversion to keep us from uniting against both parties as they push one agenda upon us.............

No tin foil hat invocations, or name calling necessary, just an honest opinion.

I believe that the end game is power - thats all. Neither party has shown an allegiance to the US or its people, rather they show an allegiance to themselves and their party and above all else the ability to consolidate power.

Now, are we talking about a New World Order or NAU? Maybe, maybe not. But at least for the short term what we are seeing is the illusion of democracy hiding rampant greed and narcissism.
