Bill Maher on Republicans and Democrats
For lack of a better place, I'm plugging this into this topic.
Page not found - WND
Apparently Bill Maher was on the Tonight Show w/ Jay Leno a couple of months ago.
The above cited is an interesting read, but there was one bit that falls under "This is what I've thought, but I've never quite been able to state it so well".
quote:
At one point, Maher spewed his venom for both major political parties.
"The Republicans are bad because they have to be held back. They are the party - and I give them this credit - they are the party of ideas. Big, stupid ideas. The Democrats have lately been the party that either doesn't have ideas, or will not defend their ideas."
That's all - If it weren't for bad ideas, the neo-cons would have no ideas at all.

"The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness." - John Kenneth Galbraith
"I know a little about a lot of things, and a lot about a few things, but I'm highly ignorant about everything." - Moose
