Partisan politics trumps political ideology everytime. If the pubs do it, it's ok. Had Clinton tried it, these people would be acting in righteous indignation.

That does seem to be the prevailing climate of the neo-cons. I always cringe when I see FReepers resorting to childish name-calling of the opposition (DimoRATS, liberdopians) in lieu of actually arguing against the ideology. Too many people around here think Pubs vs. Dems is a football game, and spend more time hurling insults at the other side than helping their own team.

There are a thousand reasons to dislike the ideology of liberalism. But to simply say "Democrats are a thousand times worse than Republicans" as a security blanket when "your team" is doing something reprehensible just seems like a head-in-the-sand partisan game.
