The things I have seen are in support of right wing policies on a democratic board. Now, do some Democratics in office support these right wing agendas? Yes. Should they? Imo, if they are true D's, then no. To they deserve to be chastised? Yes.

So, I think what you are seeing is people reacting to the support of these right wing/rovian agendas on DU.
