44. Works fo me
Killing the snake - not ragging on those who objected who might have been Democrats.

When my son was in college he lived in a vegetarian co-op. Mostly nice, liberal students, sharing a common food philosophy. They had a rat problem. Some of the people in the co-op seriously wanted to adopt an attitude of peaceful co-existance. The rats were just trying to get by and didn't deserve to be trapped or exterminated. My son's attitude was, "They're fucking rats and I don't want to share my kitchen counter with them." He ended up moving out. Peaceful co-existance with rats was not part of his housing contract.

I don't think dealing with snakes or rats is some prerequisite to dealing with neo-cons, though. Sometimes people just get lost in the moment.
