As we defend the Obama Administration, we need to avoid THIS habit:
The habit of starting to say

"It's OK when OUR guy does it".

We're the party that's supposed to be above that kind of thing.

We can defend AND hold accountable at the same time.

4. It's not about the press conference. It's about the way loyalty is defined
There should NEVER be a time, no matter what, when we defend something in a Democratic Administration that we'd condemn in a Republican one.

Obama doesn't want that sort of "loyalty" anyway. It's useless.
