I'll tell you why. Because as of right now, there are no checks and balances in the highest levels of government. If we had both sides controlling different areas of government, then something like "no confidence" might actually be implemented with a brave senator or congressman willing to stand up and do what's right for the country. Not just what's right for the next election. But expecting anything of that nature to come to light with a republican congress apparently in the back pocket of this corrupt administration, (they won't do a damn thing about this spying scandal either. They'll spin it like they always do or they'll blame Clinton for having to have started the program in the first place and the 30-40% of the kool-aid drinkers will support Bush no matter what.) is ludicrous.
Oh, and people in other countries seem to give a shit about their government fucking them over again and again so they actually hold them accountable. Unlike us ignorant, short attention span, want it right now Americans.
