Silence is not golden unless by being silent it gets you more special interest money. Democrats like Al Franken, Tim Walz and Shannon Savick ran against George W. Bush saying he is responsible for everything that happened during his administration. The same people have wanted company presidents held responsible at Target and other businesses for their employees’ actions. We now have the VA scandal on top of Benghazi, the botched roll out of Obamacare, the use of the IRS to punish Tea Party activists, the president’s refusal to enforce laws he doesn’t like and his many changes to his own health care plan that was voted on and passed by his own party.

The silence on Obama’s performance by Franken, Walz and Savick tells us they feel responsibility to the party comes before their responsibility to the voters.
