Right-Wing Adopts “Iraq is Vietnam” Meme?

Can Right wing pundits and writers be called traitors by questioning the ChinpinChief. I read in other bloggs that the Israelis don’t scream traitor when questioning their leadership. When will Bush come out and accuse NRO of being Jihadist sympathisers?
Rudi -There is definitely a double standard going on here. Also, here in Maryland, Republican Senate candidate Michael Steele came out against the war, as the war is very unpopular in this blue state, and Bush/Cheney had no problem with it-even hosted fundraisers for him. Isn’t his stand identical to Lamont’s? If a vote for Lamont is a vote for our enemies what is a vote for Michael Steele?
As I have stated before, when Bush campaigned in 2000 he promised to bring bacl honesty and integrity back to the Whitehouse(the anti-Clinton). His policies and campaign style are anything but.
Not only did he promise to bring back honesty and integrity, I remember something about “a uniter, not a divider”. What a joke. This is as partisan and divisive as it gets. No matter what your view, it’s wrong if there’s a (D) after your name but it’s perfectly fine if there’s an (R) after your name.
Of course, Steele could be pretending to be against the war to prove his “independence” from the Republican party–he’s changed his tune quite a few times already. He’s running as the candidate with “integrity”.
Bush has lied countless times already—but if you point the lies out, the “R”s get so offended, and accuse you of siding with Osama! When Clinton lied, why wasn’t it considered unpatriotic to point it out?
