My personal opinion is that if you are a registered republican you are part of the problem. If you are a registered democrat you are part of the problem.

They both use an illusion...The Republicans (as you said) claim they want less govt., and then turn around and pass every law they can think of to force you to do what they want.
The Dems try to pretend that they are "liberal" and don't want the govt. in your bedroom. So they give the illusion that they are the "smart" ones who want to just be "cool".
Then Obama turns around and has the NSA spying, the IRS targeting, goes after more "whistleblowers" than any administration in history, and of course FORCES the entire country to buy health insurance whether they want or need it.
You're right... a pox on both their houses.
It's like pro wrestling. They give the illusion that they are "foes". But in reality...they are both just pretending to play a role. The real end game is power. And there's not any difference between them.
They just have different cronies that they are sucking up to.
