They hurt your feelings talking about your party like that? You guys certainly wouldn't say anything like that for political gain.

i don't identify as a democrat, i just find them occasionally convenient.

i do think the truth is too often ignored in favor of cute myths, but your predictable rush to say "the other guys do it too so that makes it okay" is telling of your underlying morality.

"i don't identify as a democrat, i just find them occasionally convenient."

I like how you put that.

I never said it was ok that parties use these tactics. Just the opposite, really. I despise both sides using stupid ass taglines and rhetoric in order to elicit emotional responses. I just found it funny that you seemed to imply it is one-sided.
