Camille Paglia on Democrats:
“[A]ffluent middle-class Democrats now seem to be complacently servile toward authority and automatically believe everything party leaders tell them. Why? Is it because the new professional class is a glossy product of generically institutionalized learning? Independent thought and logical analysis of argument are no longer taught. Elite education in the U.S. has become a frenetic assembly line of competitive college application to schools where ideological brainwashing is so pandemic that it’s invisible. The top schools, from the Ivy League on down, promote “critical thinking,” which sounds good but is in fact just a style of rote regurgitation of hackneyed approved terms (“racism, sexism, homophobia”) when confronted with any social issue. The Democratic brain has been marinating so long in those clichés that it’s positively pickled.”
And on Republicans:
“What a backbiting mess the GOP is! It lacks even one credible voice
of traditional moral values on the national stage and is addicted to sonorous pieties of pharisaical emptiness. Republican politicians sermonize about the sanctity of marriage while racking up divorces and sexual escapades by the truckload.”
the nail has been hit soundly on its head.

The two major political parties today are a sick joke. There is no real difference. Both are controlled by the same socialistic clicque and so what you really end up with is two slightly differing versions of the same program. I have no doubt there are a handful of honest elected officials in both parties but at leadership levels they are just two different ticks on the same hound dog.
