We and They

From the last episode of the The Practice, of all places, where David E. Kelley has been getting more and more gratuitously anti-Bush, comes this new take on things, put in the mouth of the prosecutor played by Kate Hudson [paraphrased]:
My husband is a diehard Republican. He was all in favor of the Iraq war: he said, "We have to defend freedom". When the WMD didn't turn up, he complained, "How could they have been so wrong about that?" In victory, we; in defeat, they.
That's the dynamic that we need: once the Bush administration becomes they, people will be willing to toss them over the side.
