  It seems to me that just about every ITT discourse somehow or other always degenerates into a partisan blamefest of conservative vs. liberal.Don't you people get it? For the greatest majority of our elected representatives,money and self enrichment are their only cocern,(and of course re-election to further their self-enrichment)espousal of any political idealogy is calculated by whatever the polls say,bottom line.

  wileywitch,Apology accepted,but not really necessary.I do have a tendency to pontificate occasionally,and probably deserve the occasional backhand.No problem.
