No, my point is when you go against your party for matters of conscience that is ethical. Like Wayne Morse and Earnest Gruening who were the only ones to vote against LBJ's Tonkin gulf resolution. Both liberal Democrats and both defeated in the next election. By the way it was revealed a while ago LBJ lied about the Tonkin gulf incident. That is why so many dems voted to give bush war powers. They were afraid of being defeated in the next election if they didn't. The pubs have had that patriotic card hanging over the dems for 50 years. Now with the libertarians gaining power the libs can be more honest.
