as far as whitewashing an entire party, maybe thats not fair, I should have said Democrat politicians. I hate 95% of everything they stand for on every issue. I hate 65% of what Repubs stand for, so I usually lean that way.
I was a registered Republican for the majority of my voting life, although I'm currently not affiliated with any party.

And I'd wager you don't disagree with Dem politicians 95% of the time. Just like the GOP there's a spectrum that's represented by elected leaders. The more liberal Democrats get most of the press as they're in opposition to the more right-wing Republicans...hey, it makes for better news don't it?

Did you know that 47 Democratic House members are part of the Blue Dog Coalition, officially stating their beliefs in fiscal conservatisim?

A lot more goes on in Washington besides what's on Rush or reported by Moveon.org.
