All those neopseudocons who wouldn't buck the President for 7 years now won't fall in line behind him. Conviction or convenience? Serving the nation or running for re-election already?

I know, I know, consistently is the hobgoblin of little minds!!
Actually, if one wishes to avoid the fallacy of vicious abstraction, the quote should be "Foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds". Of course, since you are referring to pols and such in general, one should not expect a consistency of principle from basically unprincipled persons, should one?:-) Yours, Issodhos
It would surprise me, but perhaps you are not familiar with the word paraphrase.
Paraphrase: "a restatement of a text, passage, or work giving the meaning in another form"
Oh yes. However, the key to paraphrasing is to maintain the same meaning in another form, else a casual reader may be misled. Bad for effectively communicating, doncha agree?;-) Yours in gramatical solidarity, Issodhos
