Nothing displays the sheep-like intellect of most humans, more than the tacitly agreed upon submissive stupidity of allowing two political parties to take turns running the bread & circuses. Pathetic.

Clearly, Rat and Pig are members of Generation Text; anything more than three letters long is over their heads. Maybe thatās why one party keeps calling itself the GOPā¦
