An AP story quotes the President as saying it's time for Democrats and Republicans to work hard because the American people "expect a seriousness of purpose that transcends petty politics."
According to the story he "promised to do his part - but warned he would take Republicans to task if they don't do the same." Let me translate that statement for you. He intends to put his face in front of all the liberal media outlets again and again until the Republicans agree to come on board with him and liberal Democrats to share the blame for the mess we're in. So long as Republicans are smart enough not to share that blame by taking part in what Obama and the Democrats call bi-partisanship. Not to worry, though; he'll still blame it all on George Bush.
I want the Republicans to be the 'party of "no". The American people are tired of this Narcissism from the anointed one.
Obama and his ilk keep preaching that we need to end this partisanship, yet they ooze partisanship at every turn. Obama is quoted as saying, "I won't hesitate to embrace a good idea from my friends in the minority party, but I also won't hesitate to condemn...what I consider to be obstinacy."
Two things: When the "minority party" offers good ideas he calls it partisanship. When they refuse to come on board a sinking ship he calls them the party of, "no". I find a certain irony in this President speaking of obstinacy.
