making accusations but RARELY take responsibilties for their own actions or hold leaders from their own party accountable? At least republicans will criticize their own if they disagree with their leaders (immigration). Am I just crazy or do you see this too?

I see this too. They just say whatever the mainstream media tell them to say.

I'd have to say you're crazy on this point.
First, very few politicians ever take responsibility for their actions, so it's not just a Democrat trait.
Second, you see far more bickering and finger-pointing within the Democratic party, with people holding their party leaders accountable, than you do in the Republican party. But that's also a factor of the Republicans being more cohesive and organized.

The only disagreement I find with conservatives is now because they are breaking ranks with the president to help them with the coming election.
Bush's approval rating is low and his actions aren't going to raise the ratings any time soon. Democratic nominees are gaining popularity and republican politicians are trying not be put in the same group as Bush so the GOP has a better chance in 2008.

I see pretty much the same mix of criticizing their own + covering for their own on both sides. But that's probably because I'm not on either side.

Sure, I see that. But I also see that with conservatives. This is just such a cliche. Liberals do this conservatives do that...etc...etc.
Partisan politic is everywhere. If you can't see that on conservative side this is when people call you biased. Not crazy. Just biased.
