Karen Finley, spokesperson for the Dems:

At times we may have disagreements in our party, just as Republicans have disagreements, but as Democrats we are unified in our efforts to get our country back on track.”

A better way is to expose the extremism of Republicans, like James Dobson, who compared the Supreme Court to the KKK, or Pat Robertson who said the judges are worse than terrorists who fly airplanes into buildings. Or John Cronyn who tried to explain the murder of Judges by referencing their lack of accountability and Tom DeLay who threatened revenge on judges in the Terri Schiavo case. Examples:

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay tries to bully judges with threats of impeachment or elimination of funding. "The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior," said the Sugar Land exterminator, referring to judges who refused to rend the Constitution in the Terry Schiavo feeding tube drama.

From the floor of the Senate, Texas Sen. John Cornyn would infer that the recent murders of judges and courthouse violence are related to frustration over the "lack of accountability" of judges. Not only is that patent demagoguery utterly divorced from the details of that violence, it would abrogate the checks and balances of the three branches of government in attempting to make judges susceptible to political pressure instead of accountable to the Constitution and the rule of law.

Update: Another example of bad inter-party policy: Former DNC Chair contender Donnie Fowler tonight reportedly threw a punch at Swing State Project's Bob Brigham and missed - due to the Swing State blog's criticism of Fowler during the Chair campaign. As Sean Paul at Agonist says,

I'm tired of Clintonian triangulation. I'm tired of not winning elections. I'm tired of being Republican lite! (Tastes like crap and makes you fat.) I want a party that fights! Although not necessarily one that throws, er, punches!

Digby weighs in as well.
