Political categories have become somewhat meaningless. They media bots spun Ron Paul as a conservative, but he was dissing Bush, the IWE, war, neo-cons, etc. OK, Paul may be a libertarian quack, but his hands not as bloody as some. Hillary was pro-war, pro-israel, corporate, etc. AS is BO for most part. The difference between HRC and Mc slight, and BO has shifted to center at least.

In ways the democrats are more conservative or at least moralistic than some so-called rightists, and pro-corporate all the way. And tend to biblethump nearly as much. The old Truman-like Dems are a thing of the past (at the same time, Truman hisself had no problem signing off on Hiroshima, etc.)

This is true. Can never get enough biblethumping in politics. And I was born on Hiroshima day, 8/6. I hate that.
