Is it just me or do you guys STILL keeping hearing "both sides are to blame"?

I honestly don't believe the dems and our President are being portrayed justly in the media.

I am in Chicago where things usually lean dem and I keep hearing from people "both sides are to blame."

Dems also have high unfavorables now. They just aren't quite as pronounced as the repubs.


I'm pretty bummed that our message doesn't seem to be getting out there.

1. The Media Allows It To Protect The GOP. It Is A Right Wing Media.

2. Not since I posted that film clip of VanHollen on facebook.

The one where he is questioing to House Rule changes ...

My republican "friends" are now posting recipes and pics of their kids and lost animals again.... or at least publicly. .. Can't say what theyare saying to each other in private.

3. It's all they have - the media & court of public opinion

Republicans are getting clobbered right now because Obama's team is also good at marketing. The only thing the repugs can do is try to say "both sides do it". It's all they've got.

And, no, I do not think they are winning - Gallup is showing people are not falling for their shenanigans.

4. The reporters/panel laughed at the GOPee earlier

today on msnbc. They were talking about the GOPee wanting to stick it to their staffers. They laughter went on for at least 30 seconds.

5. Slightly OT,

but with regards to the unfavorable ratings, I don't get how both the Republicans and Democrats have high unfavorable ratings, even though both parties have been pursuing different goals. Is it a bunch of Republican respondents who are driving up the unfavorable numbers of the Dems?

6. I was just asking a question because when I talk to people or hear people calling in to radio shows

that are moderate, I'm hearing a lot of "all politicians are terrible". People don't want to analyze what is going on. People want to be spoon fed and it's easier to hate all politicians than figure out what is happening in our country.

8. Yeah, I think you may be right about that.

It's just easier to throw up your hands in disgust and proclaim that they are all the same instead of trying to actually figure out what's going on, what various groups' agendas may be, etc. Who has time for all that?

7. I recall spitting my coffee

when I first heard the expression "Liberal Press". I corrected the speaker saying, "You mean Right Wing Press don't you?" No, he didn't. He was convinced it was biased for the Left. (PS: reality is biased for the Left.)
