BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Former President Barack Obama and former Attorney General Eric Holder spent the past several months lambasting Republican states for gerrymandering, but they are not addressing Democrat-controlled states that do the same thing.
Obama last criticized Alabama’s congressional map and praised Holder’s National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC) for “fighting so hard to make sure people everywhere have an equal opportunity to choose their representatives.”
Obama commented on his appearance of double standards. “There is a big difference between when we democrats initiate gerrymandering/redistricting and republicans,” he began. “We democrats feel guilty while we’re doing it, whereas republicans are proud to commit the exact same manipulative, ruthless, political tactic!”
