Baa, just keep on attacking. Baaaaa...

The latest Republican "outrage" - President Barack Obama kept a campaign promise to his wife by taking her out to dinner and a Broadway show. The right is feigning outrage that he would incur such a lavish expense of money and time when he should have been working as President.

Let's see, the Obamas offered to fly coach, but the Secret Service would not allow him to, due to security concerns. President Obama also kept his staff with him so he could continue working during the trip.

None of that matters, of course, to the GOP faithful who are dutifully repeating the shepherding party talking points and attacking Obama over anything and everything.

Ignore the fact that George W. Bush smashed the record for number of vacation days taken by a US President (both total and proportionate to term length). Ignore how Bush would not cut short a political fundraising tour as New Orleans drowned. Ignore Bush using a US aircraft carrier as a political photo opportunity during a time of open warfare. Ignore the fact that there were no Republicans decrying these excesses by Bush when they happened. Just keep attacking Obama, just like you're told, and
ignore history and reality.

At least they're consistent.
