What a weird assessment, advocate. No way. Just because Dems do anything they want and don't care does not make me want the Republicans to imitate them. I am trying to get people to see the obvious need for both parties to have a slight bit of moral code. The Dems should get rid of their criminals and unethical actors as well.
For this country to survive, right and wrong should trump party, and with the Democrat Party, it obviously does not. You would have to be blind to what is going on to believe that.
Third world countries are third world countries, often because of corruption, expecially in politics. But politicians come from the populace, so we are on the slippery slope. We have not awakened to the fact that much of our success has been based on a society that operates mostly without widespread corruption, kickbacks, theft, etc. We need to decide what kind of country we want to be, and if we re-elect figures that are obviously corrupt, it doesn't look good for us.
