37. The Corporate Party
has members in both the Democratic and Republican parties. To be more precise, the two parties are really branches of the Corporate Party that are kept as separate entities, much like sports teams to give an appearance of competition.
At least in the old Soviet Union, there was only one party and the candidates were chosen by the party apparatus. Everyone knew what the story was and played along. When the system collapsed, it was easy to determine who was to blame.
There are so many members of Congress that have been co-opted by their associations with lobbyists, own stock in the very corporations making obscene profits as a result of this illegal War of Aggression or have other weaknesses that would drag them under when the Bush Ship of State sank.

Bush Gang was smart by making them partners-in crime.
