No, the parties ARE responsible for their stupid flawed healthcare Bills and they're both at fault for not working together to come up with a solution. They may not be equally at fault, but that's beside the point and it doesn't matter.  'False equivalence' is a cute phrase used to describe a logical fallacy used in arguement. I wasn't offering my statement as argument. The DP is often very biased toward the left, particularly in the editorials. This editorial was unbiased. I don't know how you'd ever come to a conclusion that it's 'obvious' that I don't think the DP is biased because I sometimes buy it? The two things are completely unrelated. Finally, it's good to read and listen to opinions that are different from yours. I invite you to open your mind, listen to the other side and try to learn.
