When do you think 4th quarter performance of the economy (or any business, for that matter) should be reported?

Even though RK has blocked me allegedly because "Im mean" {emails from some of his fellow cheeseheads have implied a different reason having to do with photos} I will use his quote to make a point to others who havent blocked me

He correctly states that "Dems blame Reps"
he fails to mention that Reps blame Dems.
Both of those statements are correct

What is also correct is that the problem is the responsibility of the Dems and the Repubs.
He goes on to state "at this point does it really matter?"

My answer to that question is "YES" At this point it matters more than ever
We are in a crisis. Both the Dems and Reps have had periods of control of both houses of Congress and the White House during the formation of this crisis. In those periods the problem just got worse. To a rational mind that would seem to clearly show that the Dems and Reps have both proven they are the problem and are incapable of solving it; even when they control Congress and the White House.

Yet we keep blindly voting for either the Dems or the Reps to the exclusion of all other parties.
We the sheeple keep voting the same two parties into power; those two parties have caused the problem and have proven they cant & wont solve the problem.

When Franco and others point out the folly of this practice the response from the sheeple is to point fingers at the other party. After ridiculing Franco, All or most will begrudgingly admit that the two party system has failed us. They will also admit that they like much of the platform of other parties; however those parties are too weak to have any effect.

That is a failed argument. If you argue that the Ravens are likely to lose the Super Bowl if they replaced their lines with weak, frail octogenerians from a rest home I would agree. Those old men would be too weak and insignificant to stop the 49ers lines from dominating the game. They are never going to get strong enough too have any impact regardless of how much time they spend in the rec center at retirement village

However politics aint football. In Politics ALL of the strength still comes from we the sheeple; with our votes.
If we the sheeple deny our votes {and $}to the failed Dems & Reps then instantaneously they become the skinny frail ineffective retiree who can no longer have any impact on the result of what is for the USA the ultimate SUPER BOWL.

Need I remind the Dem & Rep denizens of this echo chamber of the definition of insanity???

Please dont anyone quote this post, so as not to expose the delicate RK to anymore of my MEANNESS

Your last 2 posts on POTUS have been excellent.
They have had solid input and great content.

I disagree slightly on the third party issue, but so what, it's your opinion.
That's what this is about.

As far as those pictures, they were "2 other boys that look just like us!"
