It is unclear to whom you refer as I have seen both Dems and Reps behave in a very irrational manner. But slur them all; that way you get them all. What was pointed out about what Rush said, "But if" did not mean anything to many Dems who refuse to be fair in their judgment. The ignoring the facts is not the monopoly of any one party. I think that is the nature of politics and broad minded people will understand this, don't you agree?
