Coverage of GOP New War Room exposes Hypocrisy

Jake Tapper of ABC News reported on the new GOP’s war room on his show Political Punch and ended up exposing not only those manning this room but the Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus as hypocrites. 

According to Mr. Tapper, “Political Punch got an exclusive look inside the committee's anti-Obama attack machine, and the space they call "the war room."  “That means having transcripts of all President Obama's speeches at the ready, and responding immediately any time there is a gaffe by a the president, vice president, or a Democratic operative.”  Mr. Priebus was quick to point out that their purpose was to hold the president responsible for the promises that he made. 

Therein lays the hypocrisy because Mr. Tapper also asked if the war room was closely watching everything said by those in their own party but the question of holding them to the promises that they make was not addressed.  I often times wonder why asking for an opinion from President Obama’s opposition is still considered news since those who oppose him have not once given him much credit for anything that has happened since his inauguration.  It’s going to be quite interesting to hear from those who made it a point to keep this president limited to one term if Obama wins his second.  I wonder if after that, we will finally begin to seen lawmakers focus on what is best for the nation as a whole instead of what is best to oppose President Obama.
