Yes the arrogance of that man. Who does that black guy think he is? President of the United States.

Maybe I shouldn't see it this way, but whenever I see the "arrogant" argument I think its rooted in racism. Why aren't you calling Boehner arrogant? Or Pelosi? they both like to pointificate as politicians do...

Or does that make too much sense?
But notice that they never, never, never mention that. All we hear is how they were shut out of the process. Liars.

I think it might have the opposite effect, both in elections
and hiring.

No, you shouldn't see it that way. Arrogance comes in all colors and you have no reason, other than that you are looking for it to be so, to think it is a racist comment. How absurd. For the record, Pelosi is arrogant as well....but you probably think that is sexist.

Ok. Let me be the first to call Pelosi arrogant. While I am on a roll...Biden is as well. What a knob head he is on top of arrogant.

I think the point they are trying to make is that there well could be some areas of agreement but the other 1,906 pages are not.
