Republican congresscritters in clown makeup

Where’s the Democrats in clown make-up? Be fair, now!

Let’s be completely fair then. The Democrats, all their faults given, aren’t the walking joke party. This set of pictures is pretty spot on.
I feel quite literally disenfranchised as a conservative in this country. How can I support the bible thumping, greedy, hypocritical, irrational people that the Republican party continues to allow to represent it? I’d be ashamed to show my face in public if I were Republican.
Normally, comments like this should queue up someone to tell me, “You’re a Libertarian, you just don’t know it.” I can assure you, I know that I’m not. For all the good points you guys make, this worshiping the free market like a cult is a deal breaker for me too. I don’t even get option B.

Why don’t you Google for youself and find out?

Really? I think they are both joke parties. Plus, I’d love to some annoying Democrats in clown makeup. I think both parties have severely degenerated into something that’s not even close to their original ideologies. And in nature, when that happens, it usually means the degenerating object is dying.

Other countries have more than two parties (if they have two at all), not that that’s a guarantee things will run smoothly. I don’t know. I half-seriously label myself as a “Socialist Libertarian (or vice-versa)” because I feel people should help take care of each other when it comes to food, shelter, et al (the socialist part), and with the government taking care of the infrastructure. And I know, that’s very simplistic and sounds nice and easy, but it’s not. (I’m not so ignorant that I can’t realize that I’m ignorant.) If I knew all the answers’ I’d be at the Mayo Clinic - does this look like the Mayo Clinic?

ObSF: In Circus World by Barry Longyear, the clowns, led by the Great Kamera, tried for a government shutdown before it started. They opposed the pro-government magician faction. I assume that a series portraying Democrats taking rabbits out of hats will be next.

Don’t feel bad. I’m a social democrat in a country with no functioning left wing. :confused:
