From GOPUSA.com: We start our week with yet another double standard on display in the media. This time the setting is the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in Washington, DC.

So far Obama is staying in line with his record of partisanship (having voted with his party 97% of the time) and is not keeping his promise to “reach across the isle.” Every position being filled in the upcoming Obama administration are by democrats, and crazy liberal democrats at that.
