The Right-Wing Democratic Partisanship meme

[Vogon_Glory]

One of the latest spurious right-wing claims is that Democrats are showing partisanship when they choose to refute right-wing and Republican propaganda. Like most DU'ers, I find such claims so outrageously untrue, they're actually funny.

Personally, I think that being upbraided for supposed "partisanship" by today's crop of right-wingers is like being lectured to on the evils of profiteering from gambling and prostitution by Meyer Lansky and Charles "Lucky" Luciano in their hey-day, such claims lack credit because the practitioners are flagrantly practicing what they're claiming to oppose.

1. "Unhinged" is the other one they're starting to use

When a Democrat steps in to correct one of them during a fillibuster, they invariably will say, "Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me..." Then, as soon as the Democrat stops talking, the RW will say something like, "You're becoming unhinged! As I was saying, blah blah blah blah (fillibuster full of twisted rhetoric and lies).

3. The Pot, Kettle and Accusations...

of the color Black... Only, in this case, the Pot (Republicans) are colorblind and the Kettle (Democrats) are a shiny Brass color--not black.

Unfortunately, vast numbers of Republicans and even some others in the public are either colorblind or have their eyes closed--accepting whatever their televisions tell them (though, happily, we've certainly witnessed a decrease in the number of people who believe everything they see on TV (hear on the radio; read in the paper; etc)).
