There isn't much you can do to defeat an opponent that refuses to reason. You do need to be just as vocal as they are, and you do need to ask all the right questions. I was struck by the issue made the other day that Al Gore is now a limousine liberal, and how quickly they come together on issues, developing talking points in just minutes to put out to the press.
One of the blogs I visit regularly, Sadly, No! mentioned that Cheney ran up a $186,000.00 energy bill in 2001, and that the Navy was required to bear that expense in the future. Coincidentally, the issue came to the floor of the house yesterday, and the Republicans made a huge stink that we brought the issue up. Funny that no one questioned how can you use that much energy even in a 30 room mansion or how easy it might be to pad an extralegal fund to sponsor covert activity.
