The two faces of the Democratic Party

Don't remember hearing that phrase during the DNC in Boston? Neither do I.

The mainstream media, of course, never misses an opportunity to imply that the Republican Party America sees in New York this week is not the real Republican Party.

But where were they while the Democrats "reported for duty," sailed into Boston Harbor on a ferry, trotted out the few military men who support John Kerry, and incessantly lauded the Vietnam service of John Kerry? Wasn't it the Democratic Party that insisted on gutting the defense budget in the 1990s? Isn't this the same John Kerry who labeled himself and his fellow veterans war criminals? The party of containment, appeasement, and MAD?
