Alaska Darin Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 He can do whatever he wants, no one is saying anything different. It is just that he said he wanted to reach out to the other side and try and bring the country together. That is what he said he wanted to do, not what we are saying he has to do. The next day, he does a 180 and essentially tells 54 million people to like it or lump it. That is fine if that is what he wants. What is disconcerting and worthy of criticism is that he wants the best of both worlds, the appearance of seeking unity and the reality of doing it his way or no way at all. He can't have both. Either make a genuine attempt at compromise or stop pretending that you have any interest at all in compromising. If what he wants is two years of filibusters followed by two years of lame duckhood, then he need not seek compromise of any sort. If he wants to actually get things passed, then he needs to take the edge off and throw a bone or two to the opposition. 103857[/snapback] You mean like he did with NCLB? Yeah, I'd keep that up. Nothing better than those who hold the purse strings accusing the executive of underfunding something. The Democratic "leadership" showed their true colors over the last 4 years. They are getting EXACTLY what they deserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
