I have been arguing that the Dems and Reps are the same thing for a long time now. The flip flopping you're pointing out is indicative of exactly that. They only oppose certain policies when its the other side carrying them out.

We fundamentally disagree about what responsible governance is though, so your choice to believe the Dems are your only recourse is just that, your choice. I think, as did our founders, that limited government is the way to go, and the libertarians and the tea party are the folks taking us there.
