The cooperation you speak of that you say the Repubs should give would equal going with Obama's agenda in which (let me stress) the MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE DON'T WANT.

I don't trust the guy. I don't know who could unless they too are corrupt.

You going to see more division than ever.

We just tossed the middle of the road Moderates, in the Conservative party. We even tossed a few Moderates in the Progressive party and turned them Conservative.

There will be no middle of the road. Regardless of what results. The crossroad has been reached.

Personally, I like what President Obama has to say and I support our President of the United States. Politicians must work together.

Are you able to convince me otherwise?
He was singing a different song before the midterm elections. I don't buy it. It's too late.

You nailed him. He looks like the guy holding a dead bird on the corner, mumbling to himself and then screaming to the sky, "GOD, I LOVE BIRD!"

Hard to believe such an idiot has accomplished so much in such crummy times.

Why? Boehner cried several times last night. The commentators on CNN liked it; said it made him look more human. I listened to the press conference (in part) on the radio and I did not pick up either seeming like he was going to cry or trying to flirt with a reporter.

A talking head on one of the networks said it best last night "Pelosi and her gang were fired last night, Obama was told he's on probation". I'm paraphrasing but it's about right in content and ideal.

I do not think he is sorry at all. He has had to swallow a bite of humble pie and that is what we were seeing today. He still plans to move forward with his policies in any way he can. He is only going to work with Republicans now because he HAS to - not because he all of sudden has decided to be partisan. I also do not think he wants to change anything about his healthcare reform despite the fact that most of the people do not like it. He is still a narcissist and he still mentions Pelosi and Reid as if they are his saviors.

Bye Bye Bammy for 2012!

I also think people should not pay taxes when others do and that cigarettes should be easily avaliable to people without an ID check.
Although, to be honest, if my son got a package in the mail, I'm going to ask him what it is. "Specially if it says "HOME OF THE GREAT SMOKE" on it.
