Is it Fair and Balanced to call Dems good and Repukes bad?
Or is that giving too much credit to Repukes?

1. Yeah, gives too much credit to the pukes.....
to make it more fair and balanced, let's just say:

DEMS are HUMAN; Repukes are INHUMAN

2. Hardly
I know plenty of republicans that I like and respect. Talking in terms of black or white however, is a typical replublican trait. The world is far more complicated than that.

3. You're right
So much for my levity post, I guess they don't play well amongst the hardcore.

5. No, it isn't.
There are good Republicans just as there are bad Demoncrats. Admitting that both sides have good and bad within them is truly fair and balanced.

6. Interesting terminology there DP.
Demoncrats? You're the second 1000+ poster to defend the Repukes in this thread. I guess this forum is more politically diverse that I thought it was.

7. fair and balanced?
I think it's just honest. So much of what Republicans do is reprehensible.

I have seen them commended here on DU for doing the right thing. If you're expecting total fairness - you're probably in the wrong place.
