So Much for Bipartisanship and From the Middle Governing

For Obama’s next act, the program is the same as he has been planning for months: New Deal-style plans to rescue struggling homeowners and rewrite regulations on the financial markets, plus a budget proposal that lays the groundwork for sweeping health care reform.

But the strategy to promote these items is getting an emergency overhaul. Obama plans to travel more and campaign more in an effort to pressure lawmakers with public support, rather than worrying about whether he can win over Republican votes in Congress. Officials suggested that the new, more partisan tone Obama embraced last week in his speech before House Democrats at their retreat and continued at his news conference Monday was what he should have been doing all along.

He's got a big spending plan. He's ignoring R input and he's going to trying to sell it to the people to force buy in from Congress. Hooray!

Now, who was it here that was sure he'd govern from the middle in a bipartisan way? :question:

Bham, let me interpret the newspeak rhetoric for you.

When Barry said 'bipartisan', he meant the democrat party and the communist party.

When Barry said 'from the middle' he meant from the heart of la la land.

Got it now??

Of course he's bipartisan. Out of all of the Republican congressman, he got 3 senators to support the legislation.

he's had more Democrats not supporting the stimulus than republicans supporting it
