Words that shouldn't be on the same page together

The words? "Democratic Party" and "moral authority" as written in this National Journal piece.

Wikipedia gives us the following, "Moral authority is authority premised on principles, or fundamental truths, which are independent of written, or positive, laws. As such, moral authority necessitates the existence of and adherence to truth."

The key bit there are the last three words, "...adherence to truth." Truth and a Democrat politician are like oil and water. They just don't mix together, at all. It's makes you think of that old joke, "Question: How do you know when a Democrat is lying?  Answer: His lips are moving." Or, in this case, it's "her" lips.
