44. Ah, so now I'm spouting "hollow rhetoric"
Is that the same hollow rhetoric that has been documented extensively by the likes of Palast, Phillips, Chomsky, Hightower amongst many others, including the majority of the US population who doesn't vote?

Look friend, we have entered the Second Gilded Age, where political affiliation doesn't matter, only corporate loyalty. I know, I know, it is both tempting and comforting to hang onto the old two party differences, but WAKE UP, YOU ARE BEING PLAYED! The Democrats and Republicans are simply working the good cop/bad cop routine, while their coporate masters make out like bandits.

If you can't see what a majority of the people in this country see, then you're not looking. Stop, look around and wake up. This isn't your parents Democratic party anymore friend. It is corporate America's party.
