Are dishonest about Iran.

Both are happy to help al Qaeda in Yemen.

Both are not serious about meaningful reductions in gun violence.

Both are happy to accept 100s of millions in donations from specials interests.

Both are largely beholden to military contractors.

Both are pro-death penalty.

Etc etc etc.

They are quite different but there's also a lot of regrettable overlap.

American foreign policy is absolutely toxic and driven by hubris and greed - and both parties love it.

And neither is particularly honest about the past.

Have you made any attempts to contact those who are in charge/have say in this situation (the White House, the DOJ, etc)?

Then again, perhaps you shouldn't. I don't want Dems to be associated with some of the things that you have written here (some things that may have been hidden on DU2). Crazy talk is for conservatives.

an ineffective leader apparently. I wonder if you have called the WH to share your views of them? Or the AG? You should. But you are of course all bluster.
