Democrats are apparently NOT allowed to be "Partisan" [View all]

[Proud Liberal Dem]

whereas Republicans can be as partisan as they like. WTF is up with the media and this insane double standard, particularly when it comes to President Obama? President Obama ran on a message of national unity, true enough, and for the most part, he has bent over backwards, forwards, and sideways, to try to work with Republicans- to the point where he is seen by some as trying to work more with Republicans than his fellow Democrats- but the Republicans have been nothing but, in short, nasty towards him and have worked to obstruct him and the Democrats in Congress at every turn. Yet whenever President Obama has stood his ground, called out the Republicans for the obstructionist jerks that many of them are, suddenly the Republicans get the vapors and take to the airwaves bemoaning his "divisiveness" and "partisanship" and the corporate media gives them a platform to spew even more nastiness and lies!
