“How can you sustain a democracy if one of the two major political parties has been overrun by nihilists? And another question: How can you maintain the illusion of journalistic impartiality when one of the political parties has jumped the shark?“

Joe Klein | TIME (via TPM) (via ericmortensen)

Which party are we talking about here? Is this in reference to the Democrats being pussies about healthcare and the war, or the Republicans not caring about things because they can’t change them anyway? Also, the whole concept of “sustaining” this democracy is moot. There’s no democracy left to sustain.
