Reply #22: I think they're not the only ones.

How is it that you get information about what representatives of the two parties are saying and doing? And, who tells them what to do? To borrow a concept from Mr. Carlin, it ain't us. For an example, think of Inhofe. Who does he represent when he talks about global warming fraud? "The American people"? Well, maybe a small group of American people, and maybe some who aren't. And how is it you became aware of his views? I'm assuming he didn't visit you personally. I guess my point is, if the politicians are pulling our strings, who's pulling theirs? As another example, as infuriating as Limbaugh and Beck are, whose interests are they representing? Do you think they're at the top of their particular foodchain? Personally, I think they are not.

Also, in the game of big dog versus little dog, remember there is always a third participant: the observer.
