Historically, this could prove to be incredibly unhealthy for our country."   Let's not forget the massive weight of op-eds and blogs from the right calling the Democrats the hate-mongers. Whether it's Larry Elder denying the existence of racism today, except among Democrats of course, or the Tammy Bruce crowd accusing Democrats of being misogynist fascists, one of the chief means of hate mongering against the left is to falsely accuse the left of hate-mongering.   “I have to confess that I’m more than a little concerned with the well orchestrated hate mongering and the unwillingness of centrist conservatives and Democrats to actively speak out against them.

The people who refuse to believe there were no WMD come from the same cloth as those who claim there was no Holocaust.
