Partisanism

One of two things that George Washington warned us about before retiring and everyone completely ignored him instantly. Few people realize that George Washington warned America not to form political parties, only nobody listened and here we are, lost in perpetual gridlock.

He also warned us about forming permanent alliances with foreign countries(e.g. NATO and UN).
Worker #1:"Hey, you registered as a Democrat or Republican?"

Worker #2:"Neither. I'm registered as an independent. Partisanism has to be the worst idea since the electoral college."

partisansexship 

The ability of Democrats and Republicans to see the other party's sexual trysts as morally reprehensible while excusing their own party's sex scandals.
Every Republican points to Former Democrat President Bill Clinton's sex scandal with Monica Lewinsky and bemoans the fact he should have been impeached and removed from office, while noting or overlooking that Republicans Newt Gingrich, David Vitter, Mark Sanford, John Ensign and Larry Craig among others were or are entitled to finish their terms in office while their sex scandals are excused. This partisansexship remains an on-going dichotomy not easily explained by rational thinking human beings.

Republicans who assume all Democrats support Obama's policies are guilty of partisanism.
