Democrats will not blindly support policies as Republicans do simply because a member of their party is supportive of them. That is how we got to where we are, because of the blind support of Republicans for Bush's policies.
Bush's policies, which you would know had you been around during those years, were vehemently opposed by Democrats. Democrats still oppose those policies, many of which have been extended by this president.
Of course if you always supported those policies, then you would have no problem continuing to support them.
This is a public forum, when I make a comment, I often get responses from people who do not agree with me. That's fine, I expect it. If you object to people responding to your comments you have several choices, don't comment publicly, or put people on ignore. I choose not to do either of those two things as I am perfectly capable of dealing with disagreement. And so far apparently, neither have you. No point in complaining when someone responds to your or my comments, or try to 'very carefully' make some kind issue out of it when you choose to engage on a public forum, is there?
