The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

[Alex]

The great thing about the political game is that both sides label the other as hypocrites. Then use that hypocrisy in the other side as excuse for their own hypocrisy. And then when power flips between parties on many issues both sides simultaneously flip positions while calling the other side hypocrites for doing so.

It's the way the game is played. It, to a large extent, is the way the game has always been played. I suspect that in five thousand years, assuming republican democtratic (small r, small d, not the parties) politics still exists it will be much the same.

I have no idea who was behind it, but the blog that sparked this whole thing was obviously an attempt to get this story broken. Whether that was an angry page, a disgruntled Republican, or a Georg Soros lackey, I have no idea.

Nor is it important. Don't do stupid ****, and you won't get in trouble for it.
