Rhetorical Devices

I am going to scream the next time I hear some spineless piece of shit Republican (or Independent Democrat) say that we can't lose the war on terror, we must support our men and women in uniform, blah, blah, blah. Sometimes there are two sides to an issue, where legitimate debate should occur and compromise is a wise course of action. The dead giveaway that they don't really believe in the legitimacy of their position is when assholes like MCain and Lieberman spout platitudes like the ones I mention above. When one's political life or the oath of loyalty they have taken to stay on a sinking ship takes precedence over people's lives, it tells you a lot about the person.

And by the way, backing away from a bad position for political expediency, like Hillary Clinton has done, isn't much better, but at least it is the right direction.
