Yes, or very much like it. 
Professional lifestyle politicians must be laughing all the time at how
they've divided the country into "We're Righteous, but They're Evil" camps,
where discussions of "the issues" usually turn into name-calling &
innuendo-slinging. The founders would be appalled by how  we submit to a
class of neo-royalty, that have us running scared half the time & hating
the other Parties the rest of the time. Only they (beng rich & powerful)
care enough about us poor folk to save us from "the rich & powerful" or
some other crisis-dujour. It would be a great day if all the professional
politicians were turned out but the voters keep re-electing 'em. <sigh> 

Okay, rant mode off....I seldom go off like that. I promise to behave
better from now until election day. <G>
