[Stand Firm] 10 May 2007--Recasting an opponent’s public words of dissent and their legitimate opposition plans as “conspiracy” is an old game, a sophisticated form of ad-homineim, which allows one party to shift the focus of debate away from the content of the issues at hand to integrity of the opposition. We see it in politics all the time. Republicans, who really do believe that government is too bulky, formulate legislative plans to reduce its size and they’re charged with “plotting” to destroy this or that social program. Democrats, who really do believe that the war in Iraq is unjust, plan legislative strategies to end the war and they’re accused of “plotting” to undermine national security.
