But yeh 58 billion is a joke and anyone trying to defend this is jockriding partisanship.
If I come across as an Obama defender, its not intentional. A Presidential defender, yes. The office, in the CEO role, is an important one that should not only be respected by ALL, but that both sides should seek to work with. The pawns are to be served, not destroyed during the game. From a party perspective they are all power grabbing idiots.
As for the left & right, for the most part the people elected to office fit closer to the center, with the outliers balanced.........an Alan Grayson with a Michelle Bachmann for example. When was the last time the balance in the Senate was 70:30. Or a 3/4 majority in the House. If the hard right are no where near the center, yet think they are, how can the left ever come close? They can't, not under the current definitions. The Progressives get demonized by the right, but over what. Wanting to forge a better balanced democratic nation for all, hey that's what the Egyptians want to do now.
In terms of a company, do you want the board constantly waging war against each other over control. Or do you want them to get on with it and make some profit.

This is just idiocy, and destroys rather than emphasizes an understanding of current events.
