Good God the Republicans are so dishonest. I'm sorry but in modern times you just don't see this type of behavior in such frequency on the other side.
Of course not. The best example of false equivalence and fraud perpetuated by the Republican Party over the past thirty years was the convincing of a large segment of the American public that the Democratic Party is just as sh*tty as they are. It's also probably their biggest moral victory.
It's not the Republican Party that accomplished that victory. It's their shills in the media.
