Rightwing strategy for attacking truth-tellers...
Immediately accuse them of being an extremist.

If the criticism has to do with Israel, you're an anti-semite.

If the criticism is of US foreign policy, you're "un-American" or you "hate Bush" or you're "for the terrorists"

No where on the republican, rightwing side of the issues does logic, reason or common sense enter into the discussion. It is pure reactionary clap-trap that protects those committing acts of evil in the name of democracy.
