I suppose you have kind of a point there but I'd love to have Rather or any of the GOP candidates actually have to make a case for why Obama isn't "a leader" but I know that that's probably asking too much of what passes for our media. It seems like the tough questions are reserved for Democrats or the onus is always on them to prove their case. GOPers can just say whatever the hell they want and it passes straight through the "media filter" that they spend so much damned time complaining about anyway.
