Rachel Maddow Exposes Another False Equivalency

I talked to a conservative friend yesterday. She was angry, saying that "It's not fair that we get labeled bad things if we criticize Obama for everything, yet, when Bush was President, it was okay to slam him for everything though?"

First off, no one rational slammed Bush for everything, but for many obvious things. Second, there will always be people beholden to a President no matter what they do, good or bad, just because they are stuck on the Kool-aid of that President. And third, it is yet another silly conservative straw man that fails to look at the bigger picture.

Thanks goodness for sensible people.
