Get over it.

You can’t have it both ways!  You cannot call Purple Heart winners cowards and traitors, and then expect the other side to blindly lock step and swallow every thing you feed them!  You cannot say voting for Democrats is equal to voting for terrorists, and expect to have the moral high ground!  When you play dirty, expect to get dirty!

Now, I’d like to say that I thought the MoveOn.org ad was silly, but it was also effective.  Look at the conversation going on around the nation, one that’s lasted a heck of a lot longer than it would have been if we’d just been discussing his report to Congress. 

In the KY race for Attorney General, Republican Stan Lee sent an email to supporters this week accusing Jack Conway of supporting “liberal trial lawyer friends” (jeez, that again?  Get a new writer, folks) and “making a living off the backs of Kentuckians.”  Then, he has the gall to be shocked and dismayed when Conway points out that Lee is a lawyer for State Farm, an insurance company known for not paying claims to Katrina victims.  Lee says Conway is blaming him for Katrina.  Face it Lee, if you are going to throw stones at the company Conway keeps (he’s a trial lawyer), expect the company you keep to be brought to light too.

But of course, this is how the game is played, isn’t it?

    Unfortunately you can have it both ways. As Rush Limbaugh has demonstrated with his recent disgraceful remarks, you can call soldiers who criticize the war “phony soldiers”, and you can even compare a wounded soldier to a suicide bomber and call him stupid and get away with it…if you’re a Republican and you claim that you never said any of the things you actually said. And Democrats let them get away with it.
