I remain less than giddy about Rick Perry, but I find it … odd that everyone’s in a kerfuffle about his “treacherous” Ben Bernanke comments while no one seems to care that the actual President of the United States is going around saying his political opponents aren’t as patriotic as he is.

[Update: This post was slightly revised. Obama’s not saying his opponents “aren’t patriotic” he’s simply saying they aren’t as patriotic as he is because they won’t put country first.]
