It's OK for Dems to Namecall, But...

I am so sick of the double standard.

In a speech in Colorado, Hillary Clinton, beacon of tolerance on the left, had this to say about President Bush:

"I sometimes feel that Alfred E. Neuman is in charge in Washington," Clinton said referring to the freckle-faced Mad magazine character. She drew a laugh from crowd when she described Bush's attitude toward tough issues with Neuman's catchphrase: "What, me worry?"

So she can compare Bush to MAD Magazine's goofball mascot, Howard Dean can call Republicans braindead, lazy, evil, exclusionary Christians and Harry Reid can call W a loser--but when Karl Rove makes the claim that the left had a much different tactic for fighting Islamic terrorism, he was out of line?

A word of advice to the Party of the Ass: If you feel like dishing it out, start taking it or shut up.
