How about a quote from Barack Obama, not anonymous, from the very cite you list above? "I want to consult closely with our Republican colleagues," Obama said. "What I want to do is to ask them to put their ideas on the table. . . . I want to come back and have a large meeting, Republicans and Democrats, to go through, systematically, all the best ideas that are out there and move it forward." Do you guys just not see these quotes, or just pass over them because they don't fit your stance? This was almost at the top of the story, and the anonymous official's quote, which only says that he's moving forward, was almost at the bottom. BK

Obama just wants to look non-partisan when in reality he is all partisan all the time. Unless you start over, you cannot move forward. Period!

Period! > In the first place, "This is not starting over" came from an anonymous person. Secondly, you certainly can move forward without starting over. Think this one out. Find those areas where there is some agreement and go from there. Now, if there is absolutely no agreement anywhere, then find some. BAR wants this to be a game, but reasonable people shouldn't. BK

My observation is not the same. It seems the only questions that get asked are the ones they know the answer to.

Do you not see how the game called politics is played? You are looking like a simpleton Bobby. Gitmo was supposed to be closed by now. Why hasn't it been closed? Obama signed an executive order and stated that it would be closed within one year. Obama made a big deal about this and it hasn't happened yet. Keep living in your dream world. |
