You have heard it the "neocons" are facist jack booted nazis on a freedom taking bent
The Liberals are all communists that are a danger to the US etc
Does this not fit in to a wonderfull divide and conquer plan that could be used effectiively by terrorists ?
When hate mongering goes on - on both sides - isn't this only a benifit to an enemy of the US ?

no, it benefits democracy. only when both sides have strong opinions, are paying attention, and participating in politics is democracy alive and well.
it plays into the terrorist hands to tear up the constitution and have one party rule, because then we are no different than the terrorists we fear.
