Don't forget that someone (probably at Dead Breitbart's House Of The Unending Derp) will snidely suggest this could be resolved if only President Obama would invite the leaders of both factions to the White House for a beer.

So a Venezuelan, a Ukrainian, and a penis are having a debate.

The Venezuelan asks the bartender, "Which came first, the Bastille or the National Razor?"

The bartender says, "Bastille."

The Venezuelan turns to the penis and says, "See? Low Rider there told you to stand up strong before they get out the trimmer," and high-fives the Ukrainian.

This is what happens in places where God hasn't stepped in and written the constitution.

That being said, I truly do feel for the people of Venezuela and Ukraine. As crappy and corrupt and morally bankrupt as US politics can be, it still is far better than those alternatives.

Democracy is a lot like sex after marriage . . At first you are all hot for it, then you sort of lose interest in voting for the same person, then you are too tired or distracted to vote at all, then you are attracted to non-voting dictatorial scenarios, then you become a Republican.
