13. Some people won't accept anyone but the "purists"

I can't say I would have voted for CAFTA or the Bankruptcy Bill if I was a U.S. Senator (because of the problems inherent with the way they were structured by the GOP), but I can understand why some of the moderate Democrats and conservative Democrats voted the way they did.

Yet, when it comes to legislation with PERMANENT consequences (such as FMA or ANWAR), the Democrats who support those pieces of shit legislation seem to get a free pass from DUers.

Hypocritical.

As John McCain said to the GOP Caucuse, members of your party aren't always going to vote the way you want them to. Grow up.
