Using a recent comment about Michelle Obama as an example, he argues that two things can be wrong at the same time. Whether it's insults aimed at political opponents or partisan double standards, Chris explains why defending bad behavior simply because it's "your side" erodes personal responsibility, civil discourse, and basic decency. If you wouldn't accept that excuse from your own children, why accept it from politicians and pundits?
