For example, he harped on the fact that Obama didn't release the names of his donors under $200, even though it wasn't required by law. And today he talked about how Obama used the old trick of mischaracterizing his opposition to the stimulus by saying they want to do nothing. But then Dickerson doesn't point out the fact that after that he said some people just want to do different things in the stimulus bill and that it was a legitimate conversation and negotiation that he would have.
