Character assassination is not a sole tactic of the left wing. The combat service records of Murtha, Kerry and McCain were all attacked by the right. I value the integrity of my own political standards which is why I was also royally ****ed when -some- of the left was accusing GHWB of cowardice for bailing out of his aircraft. It's a cheap shot; accusing somebody of cowardice in combat during a life or death struggle in which the accuser was never close to any similar situation. Unfortunately, it's a tactic employed by contemptable and embarrassing elements of both the left -and- right I agree. This is where our politics is. It started with the Robert Bork SCOTUS hearings, and was perfected by the Clintonistas. Now, many members of both parties attack each other, rather than debate ideas. Its sad, actually.... |

But, hey, back in The Day at least you could challenge the opponent to a duel or just beat him with your cane on the Senate floor... (We need more Senator fights.) -c |
