sabotage

David Horowitz, who has never been accused of moderation, writes today, in part about his old bugga-boo. Having been a former member of the Far Left, he never passes up a moment to take a shot at them, and then comments on how the Democratic party is following in their footsteps.

"Unfortunately, the Democratic Party has followed suit in its own timid way, shedding the mantle of appeasement to become the party of sabotage. Not a day has gone by since American forces liberated Iraq that Democrats have not attempted to undermine the leadership that brought about the victory. The greatest triumph of American policy since the end of the Cold War has become the unending target of Democratic snipers -- among them all its presidential nominees and its chief congressional spokesmen."

Not a day has gone by? Not a single day? That sounds like a little bit of hyperbole.

Perhaps Mr. Horowitz should console himself by remember that we live in a democracy. A democracy is by its nature a combative system. Republicans never let up on Clinton, did they? So why should he expect democrats to follow an opposite path from his own party?

More to the point, if President Bush did allow disingenuous information to be presented to the American People in order to convince them to go to war, than he needs to answer for that. I'm not talking about impeachment (a pipe dream at best), but I am talking about an electoral process.
