I think just because one quadrant of the party is very LOUD here doesn't necessarily make them the majority.
I also think that people who are DEMOCRATS can have differing views over national security issues. People who feel compelled to call those who disagree with them shitty little goading/baiting names or attach labels to them that suggest they are less "loyal" to Democratic principles than the people with the "correct" ideas are the ones who need to check their mirrors.
Honorable people can differ on this issue. Labelling and name calling doesn't help the situation--it makes this sad thread look way too META, too.
