butwhatabout

A term frequently used to deflect blame or criticism from your political party's candidates or representatives by diverting attention away and passing it to the opposition party's candidates or representatives. This tool is especially useful when it is blatantly obvious to the most casual observer that your candidate or representative is guilty as hell.
