There is a mean spirited humor that they enjoy not unlike the Ann coulter's of the world, who like to take cheap shots in place of debating ideas.
So long as the neo-con crowd insist that any dissent from their views is treason and un-patriotic, there is little point in trying to have a productive dialog.

Two money posts in a row! Yep, arrogance and narrow-mindedness rule the day right now. These guys just swarm like a pack of wolves and try to intimidate and silence anyone that dares disagree with their worldview. Debate with an open mind is for wussies.
At least they come by their attitudes honestly -- from the Vice President of the United States.
