In the excerpt below, Mr. Taranto states: "the fact that the AP views this as a serious question shows its partisan bias. Can you imagine the AP running a similar story in, say, 2006 titled 'Are Democrats Trying to Sabotage Iraq War to Hurt Bush?'" 

Partisan bias is bias that favors one political party over another.  Do you agree with Mr. Taranto that the AP (and the Washington Post) display partisan bias in the two articles?  Explain your answer.
