Why Political Parties Mean Nothing

If you are party loyal - you are condoning such behavior...

Loyalty to values is a virtue.  Loyalty to party OR to one's own political future at the expense of values is the evil.

Some swap because their side doesn't reflect their values any more.  Some swap just to maximize their chance at power.  Only the last one is an evil prick.

(likewise, I change the party I vote for on a regular basis, when they change their platforms or get too drunk on power. That doesn't make me a disloyal prick either)
