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.

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.

They're going fast!

You'd think the Republicans would have this figured out by now, but it seems that, like Charlie Brown, they return over and over when Lucy holds the football for them to kick.

Yep. The other thing to note is how they make a wacko accusation and then demand the Right prove THEIR accusation false. We need to kick them in the teeth for this. The burden of proof rests on the accuser, not the accused.
