I do not know how many time I have heard how we need bipartisanship. These individuals say we need to put down our labels an come together for the good of the nation. Now we have the man of hope, the man that was going to end partisanship in Washington as President. Which Obama has. Every time a piece of Obama agenda come to Congress a large chunk of Congressional Democrats side with the the Republican block. For what ever reason this never get brought up, only the partisanship of the Congressional Republicans. So good job President Obama you have successfully united Conservative Democrats with Republicans.

Republicans found out the hard way that the country doesn't want you cuddling with Pelosi and reid, mop the floor with their heads instead. McCain didn't do to well by being this reaching out guy, and Bush didn't leave office too popular.

I think there are some here on Mylot and in the Obama administration who think bipartisanship means the Republicans going along totally with the Obama/Democrat agenda, even if they don't agree with it. Of course it doesn't work the other way.

Yes. But even worse. Bipartisanship is everyone being a progressive liberal. It's groupthink on a massive scale. Everyone lines up to be a well greased, working part in the machine.
I'd actually entertain the idea if the "community" hasn't torn the world apart infinitely more than it's brought it together.
At the end of the day, we're individuals. That's a concept lost on a lot of zealot progressives.

I wish they would all just get along and work together and get something going good for this country. It is worse now than it ever was before even though Obama is trying his best to deal with all of the problems we are all facing.

OK, as long as we have lots of people in government, with different opinions, not everyone is going to agree with everyone else. Not all Conservative Democrats have sided with the Republicans. It will never happen, and this is why we have government, and freedom to think as we want to. Why would we want everyone to agree on everything...that kind of defeats the American purpose. And perhaps, its not that a large chunk of Congressional Democrats are siding with the Republicans to do away with partisanship, but because they don't agree with Obama, even though he is a Democrat....
