The statistics every day underscore the urgency of the economic situation, and the American people expect action," the new Democratic president said in brief remarks before heading into a private meeting with Senate Republicans. "I don't expect 100 percent agreement from my Republican colleagues, but I do hope we can put politics aside."
Obama's decision to meet lawmakers on their home turf is symbolic of his desire for bipartisan backing for the stimulus plan even though fellow Democrats hold sufficient majorities in both houses to pass the measure, regardless.

So we don't need the GOP. Obama is just trying to "work with" the GOP. Let us see if that is possible. I don't think it is, because the GOP doesn't want anything the Dems want.
They want the economy to work only for the rich, the Dems want it to work for everyone.
The Dems want good paying jobs. The GOP want tax breaks for the corporations that are moving overseas.
Etc
Every member of the GOP worth his salt will vote no. Let the Dems do it on their own. Let them own it.
I guess what you and the GOP need to understand is that as hard as you work against us, is just how hard we will make it on you.
And we own this bitch for at least 2 years, so its going to be a looooong 2 years. Heck, make it 4, no, 8 years.
For you and Bitch McConnell, its going to be a long 8 years.
And get used to hearing the name Bitch McConnell, because he's the new Bush. The new Corporate Fascist figure head. Him and Boehner.
What makes you think we don't understand that? You have been braying non stop since the election jackazz! We knew you fucking were lying when you said you wanted bipartianship.. now didn't we? Why, hell yes, I think we did. Oh by the way, Did I tell you I hope obamalama fails?
