Double Standard

The press and even Americans expect the Democrats to be perfect problem solvers and allow the Republicans to be devils in policy. It shows on Social Security where the President has not nailed down a plan but the press is asking Democrats for a plan! It shows when the President is actively campaigning for private accounts and basically phasing out Social Security, which has hardly any support, and he's not getting criticized by the press while Democrats are being told that they are making a tactical mistake for specifically ruling out private accounts being paid for with Social Security (which is actually the good and rational decision!).

AND the Democrats are the OPPOSITION PARTY! They are rationally opposing the President's position that private accounts are the solution to Social Security. Democrats are right on this! They have backbone, they are taking a firm position, they are taking a moral stand--in fact, they are perfectly right!! So no Democrat should be blaming Democrats for this problem!! Talking Points Memo

But Harry Reid should not have voted for the banckruptcy bill...a shame.
