As far as the media is concerned GOP hatred, racism and hypocrisy is irrelevant to any discussion. It is okay when Republicans or conservatives do it. It is part of the double standard that now infects this country.

A Democrat or progressive person or institution or group who does anything even minor is pilloried endlessly. Republicans and right wingers are "natural born pathological liars". It is just their nature like a rabid dog.
