Bipartisanship..............

" Bipartisanship is not the answer to foreign policy challenges. Our Constitution wasn't designed for Senators to 'get along' or 'work together' in bi-partisan happy talk, and it's a perversion of the system when both parties support the same policies. Our Constitution was designed for constant controversy because that is the way we can maintain our freedom and independence. " - Phyllis Schlafly December 1999

I am reminded of an old saying about merchants who get together to talk shop always shaft their customers but buggered am I if I can remember it properly.

Consensus politics is always a stitch up for the people. The opposition simply isn't doing it's job otherwise.
