well, you sorta prove my point when you just 'assert' that "...any mudslinging is justified from the "blame-game" that Obama has been engaged in.."
...and "I find much of what Pelosi and Reid have stated to be both false and offensive-"
Do I HAVE to site detailed proof that Republican lying & mudslinging is qualitatively different? What good would it do me, if you can just say "I disagree"? Mitch McConnell and John Boehner...(not to mention Sharron Angle and Michele Bachmann)..just proclaim ANYTHING that will get played as gospel on Fox....and repeat it, no matter how often it is disproved, using the same basic technique YOU are using - simply asserting that they are right and that even IF they are wrong, their 'opponents' did it too!
You gotta get beyond that worn out, fallacious argument form.



but...Be careful what you ask for...here's an example of distortion on the truth....

Blaming Dems for Bush tax cuts

The facts...

    * Extending the Bush tax cuts would add about $2.3 trillion to the national deficit.
    * On top of that, repealing the Alternative Minimum Tax and ending the Estate Tax and Gifts Tax would add another $1.1 trillion to the national deficit.
    * Obama's health care reform bill actually reduces the deficit, so fulfilling Republican wishes to repeal health care reform would add another $138 billion.
    * The other Obama proposal that would reduce the deficit is the cap and trade energy legislation. By blocking that, Republicans add another $19 billion to the deficit.
