What's wrong with cheering for the President?

It's possible to have opinions without letting those opinions effect their job. This is called being nonpartisan. I know it's a new concept around here, but really, you can vote for and support the president but still write articles about his screw ups.

Since Obama has not fucked up yet (ie he wasn't even president yet), what should the reaction have been? Boos? Please. Can we hold off on demonizing him for just a little longer, until he actually makes a mistake or uses his power to do something you disagree with?

Edit: Ie even if Bush wouldn't have gotten an applause, who gives a shit? Reporters are allowed to have opinions and still not let it introduce a bias. "Thieves believe that everyone else is stealing from them."

Sorry but this is bullshit, if your job is in some way related to your partisan feelings to think that they won't have an impact is idiocy.
