Yeah, I know. Unfortunately, the right wing politicians don't make liberals play by their own rules.
The left wants choice, but denies choices for everyone else. Why not call them on it?
They want free speech, but deny it to others. Why not call them on it?
They want rights for homos living together, but object to unmarried heterosexual living together getting the same rights. Why not call them on it?
They scream about Corporate wealth and criminality, but ignore their own politicians who have "mysteriously" become millionaires after reaching Washington . Why not call them on it?

Our politicians are forced to live by their own rules, yes, but our own politicians at the same time give the left a pass. Why aren't they calling them out?

You’re so right!

I’ve always wondered about that. Seriously. Why don’t they call them on it?

I guess that’s what lead me to believe that we’re basically all just getting suckered by the entire process. We can get all up in arms about liberal this vs conservative that, but in truth we’re just arguing around the margins.

Meanwhile the entire scope of political discussion marches inexorably to the left.

Granted, Obama is really beyond the pale in that respect. But do any of us really think McCain would not have also either authored or at least readily approved a Dem spending plan?

No matter though. We can all go back to arguing about the 10 commandments in a court house, or octo-mom or something.

:(
