Muir has it right. There's no need to label people as traitors or liars when garden-variety foolishness is more than enough to explain the behavior. There is a much larger supply of stupidity in Washington, D.C., than dishonesty and treason. (Though, admittedly there are pockets of the other two, especially dishonesty, that need dealing with.)

"larger supply of stupidity"
ditto. I don't regard most Dem pols as traitors, I view them as morons and careerists. That goes for most of the rank and file Dems. I know quite a few vets and even Vietnam vets who are Dems. Many of them hate Bush and Republicans and are consequently anti Iraq war. But their views are mostly subordinate to their politics. If the top Jackass ie. Dem says the moon is made of green cheese, they will repeat what he says obediently without hesitation. I won't question Murtha's past service to his country. I do question his intelligence.
