As a Republican, do you look for faults in Democrats to legitimize your own party's? If so, do you justify two wrongs as right in your life?

I'm curious if Republicans support the activity of finger-pointing and fault-finding to justify destructive courses within their own party. Does this activity extend to their personal lives? If they find faults on another side, do they think it gives them the right to do it, too? 

Do they typically look for errors in others to alter their own course? If they found a problem with the other side, do they think it means they don't have to obey their own values and rules? From my vantage point, it looks like a majority of Republicans do it in debate, so I am curious if the activity is strongly supported or not within their party; when you see others doing it, do you support them? 

It doesn't matter if Democrats do it or not, it's your morality/ethicality and behavior that I am curious about as a group. 

Take Care, With Love Through God and Jesus and The Holy Ghost, 

Update:

 This isn't a "Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone" kind of thing. It's more akin to throwing the Money Changers out of the Temple.  

Where is your line of thinking going? Since Democrats are like Money Changers in the Temple, Republicans have a higher calling to use any means possible to throw them out, even if by dirty means and means against their values? I disagree wholeheartedly if that is meant. 

Your dialog needs clarification.

    No, I just don't agree with anything the Left stands for.

    It's always better to learn from the mistakes of others, than to make them yourself.  But in order to do that, you need to have a functioning moral compass, and an appreciation of the concept of Objective Truth.  This isn't a "Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone" kind of thing.  It's more akin to throwing the Money Changers out of the Temple.  

    Yes, the Democrats are the money changers, and they deserve to be thrown out, but in any conflict between Right and Wrong, only one side needs to cheat. Don't equivocate and assume that both sides will do it.  All that needs to be done, is play the hand out as per the rules, and hold people accountable throughout.  When you respect the process, you can respect the result.

    I have been saying this for 30 years. The Government is not your friend. Both parties serve themselves and not the people. Democrats are crazy & Republicans are wimps. If people want to truly improve government in this country. They need to demonetize it, decentralize it, and localize it. Power should always be as close to the people that it affects.
