This "bipartisanship" kills truth on the horns of its artificial dilemma. I'd like to hear about "trans-partisanship," in which representatives transcend party affiliation and strive for truth and integrity.
Right now, the only transcendence achieved is one of mindless and duplicitous accord. To them, bipartisan means both agree to a particular doctrine. That's mono-partisanship. Some would call it an Oligarchy. Some might even call it Tyranny. "Democratic" and "Republican" are both sides of the same stale and corrupt coin -- the "coin of the realm."
Without discourse there is only Dictation. The congress is two-faced, and singular in its resolve to destroy Constitutional values through neglect and distraction.
The popular pejorative "Left" label is but a buzz-word applied to anyone who wants truth and integrity in order to dismiss them as "polarized." Give me the polarity that insists on truth any day!
How little the fools in power care about reality. They enjoy the (in)fantasy in which they live, hoping that Daddy won't take the T-bird away. But that is inevitable. Any single-minded devotion to a lie is doomed to fail at some point. Oh, the lie can go on for a long time, but those who adhere to it will be revealed over time. And eventually, the lie itself will be defeated. It may be replaced by others, such is the history of the world. But the lie will be defeated. The work goes on.
