You want to know something funny? Until a few weeks ago, I had heard the name "chomsky" and recognized it but didn't know really who he was. Want to know something funnier? I had no idea who George Soros was until a few weeks ago as well.
Whats my point? My point is that I don't give two sheets what either of those men have done and how they have affected the "party", nor do I give two sheets what people think of me because of the party I "belong" to. Last I checked, I didn't elect DNC officers, calls to Congresspeople do not work unless theres a PR stunt, and I have to work my ass off to play catch up all my life, so pardon me for not being more willing to engage in longterm debates over the evilness of Democrats and Liberals.
Sometimes people pick a party not because they agree more with that one, but because certain aspects of the other party piss them off. Pressing issues tend to even themselves out eventually, parties vie back and forth to keep balance, bad things happen and get fixed, and blaming every liberal or democrat for something that murtha, or dean, or gore said about transfatty acid is pretty typical of both sides. Lowest common denominator. Yes, it's all my fault. All of it, even the hot coffee lawsuits
