And the new strategy is......

when you have people of one party sending emails to each other saying if we can defeat this bill we can break (or some word similiar) the president, what else would you call them? Repubs - the party of no ideas.

No, the policy is to engage enough so that the GOP can either come to the table or take a hit in the mid-terms.

The entire Republican party is so paranoid right about about being associated with anything bearing Obama's stench they're going to consume themselves.

Looks like Mr. Brown is in town just in time for brunch.

you can't come to the table when you are locked out of the room...

you have clearly left for a parallel universe....it's the dems that are running from Obama and in many cases against his policies ....the "plan" is to allow dems to have complete ownership of this disaster and take the deserved hit in the midterms....

you did get the stench part right though

He's playing politics, but he's also giving the GOP an opportunity to engage. This notion that they've been "locked out" is pretty silly.

IMO, if the GOP doesn't jump on board with the Democrats then Obama's stand is, they aren't playing ball.
They are telling Obama where they stand, Obama just isn't listening. He has huge tin ears.
Did they forget the lessons learned from the Brown election? Small government, less taxes, no goverment run healthcare, Stop spending what you don't have.
He goes and proposes a budget that's 40% higher then tax revenue can support.

Is it possible he is just this stupid?

There is a Democrat in the White House today solely because the Republican Party Fucbarred this country to a fare-thee-well. Period.

This is something consistently harped on, but not far out of line from the previous budgets.

Couldnt have said it better myself. I was listening to a few libs on talk radio today and they were talking about the expectations that Scott Brown was going to reach across the aisle. Callers made exactly the point I would have made, why would he? His stance was simple and it got him elected. He was against 80% of Obamas polices. I dont want compromise, I want 180 degree turn. I am not alone. Obama doesnt get it.
