 @Cyph3rp9nk Serious answer: both sides get things right sometime, and deserve praise when they do.

 They never get anything right that people wouldn't have got right sooner without the interference of politicians.

And why are there "sides"? Is it some sort of game?  Politics is divisive in its essence. Without division, politics and politicians have no reason to exist. Without them, we get on with whatever needs doing, unhindered.
