Its all blue baby....

lol, true that. But I always vote, myself, seeing as sometimes the shade gets a little too dark or light in one direction or another. If asked if I would vote democrat or republican, my initial thought would be "do I really have to choose?" America's version of variation in party idiology is laughable; you're pretty much feeding the two-headed beast. But considering how atrociously the Republicans have dismantled the spirit and substance of the consitution, I'd vote democrat. They both seem to take the constitution (one of, if not the best documents in the world) as something to be considered secondary to their own goals, but the Bush administration has just taken it to a whole new level of disregard that's just reprehensible.



I'm a big admirer of the US constitution btw. I've thoroughly read the Canadian constitution 3 times, and it's nothing more than a watered-down shadow of what you guys have; almost identicle in what it does cover, but missing roughly 60% of the essential elements and so vague in so many areas, it can be interpreted for convenience rather than law.
