And in my opinion their flaw is to prove that they are not mouthpieces for the administration. In doing so they start sounding like everyone else. Bush definitely warrants some criticism but these guys have the need to show us how "smart" they are.

It is truly amazing how many of the "Conservative Establishment" who claim to Ronald Reagan's intellectual grandchildren seem so eager to forget Reagan's 11th Commandment.

Thou shall speak no ill of other Republicans.

They are busy giving credibility to the Hate Bush Left and wonder why they continually lose the political PR wars! It does not show how "smart" they are, quite the opposite in fact. We really are the STUPID party some days.

That, my friend, is an excellent point!

We are playing by the Left's rules on the Left's home field.

You do know about Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radical, don't you?

Consider Rule #4 which states:

Rule 4: Make opponents live up to their own book of rules. “You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity.”

If this were a moderated debate class, fine. The rules would be applied equitably. But this is politics! It's like a streetfight.
