But whats surprising is that the Obama administration seems to have no idea that other stations like CNN also has their side. I mean CNN fact checked a SNL skit that was poking fun at the administration. They seriously fact checked it.
In many ways this current administration feels like amateur hour. Complaining about the only major media organization that isn’t sympathetic to your views reeks of petulant little kid. Given that our current president came into the office with absolutely no executive experience we really shouldn’t be surprised.

So its not at all unfair that people on the right accused those on the left of creating death panels. Although admittedly, the language is exaggerated, but we are talking about politics here.
