The partisanship surrounding space exploration and the retrenching of U.S. space policy are part of a more general trend: the decline of science in the United States. As its interest in science wanes, the country loses ground to the rest of the industrialized world in every measure of technological proficiency.

American Scientist

It is hard to put aside partisanship. It is hard to give up the easy wisecracking jeer that divides and destroys. It is hard - very hard - to have worked sincerely and wholeheartedly for a cause and to have lost. Most of all, it is hard to put aside personal prejudices. And yet we must put these things aside.

American Poet

Katie Hill

What is important to me is that I'm not accountable to and not controlled by party leadership. At the end of the day, I'm able to make my own decisions according to what's best for the community and the constituents I represent. It doesn't depend on what the partisanship is to the right or to the left.

American Politician

Evgeny Morozov

We've never thought too deeply about the roles things like forgetting or partisanship or inefficiency or ambiguity or hypocrisy play in our political or social life. It's been impossible to get rid of them, so we took them for granted, and we kind of thought, naively, that they're always the enemy.

Walter Isaacson

I think right now we need to look back at the founding values of our country. Rise above partisanship, be less bitter when it comes to important matters that have to be solved.

American Writer

Charlie Baker

Our obligation to the people we serve is too important to place politics and partisanship before progress and results.

Tulsi Gabbard

The cause of peace is too great for us to allow political disagreements or partisanship to stand in our way.

Mike Coffman

I think partisanship is probably the greatest problem in Washington, D.C.

John Hickenlooper

Partisanship often refers to bias in favor of one's own political party over others.

Political Context

The term can imply unreasonable or blind loyalty that may ignore broader concerns or fairness.

Negative Connotation

While often seen as negative, partisanship can also reflect a strong, passionate commitment.

Not Always Negative

 and if we had seen that here i think the united states it wouldn't have been tough it's not just that people hear it differently or say it differently it's that people exploit that partisanship right now in this country and want to politicize anything i mean they want to politicize sunshine they will want to politicize rainbows i mean things that are just facts and truths

 You've got to look behind the partisanship and see who's pulling the strings. The truly evil story is what the fossil fuel industry is doing. They've taken power centers of the Republican Party and grabbed them all. And if they pull their support from a Republican candidate, that's a very serious threat.

 This is the most negative partisanship election in American history. So you have to first separate your feelings about the candidate from your feelings about the people who are given a choice. And then you have to realize that, because we all live in a separate moral world --
