Obama Says Bipartisanship, But What He Wants Is GOP Surrender

"Despite the political posturing that often paralyzes this town, there are many issues upon which we can and should agree, he said.

It was more a plaintive plea than a political observation. His top legislative priorities are going nowhere and he's searching for a way to get them out of lockup...

...He's appealing for a spirit of bipartisanship - urging Democrats and Republicans alike "to put aside matters of party for the good of the country"...

...What these presidential appeals for bipartisanship always mean is: do it my way.

Mr. Obama said he "won't hesitate to embrace a good idea from my friends in the minority party." But he wants his way. He wants his energy policy enacted along with his jobs bill, his financial regulatory reform and his health care plan.

And if the opposition continues to block his objectives, he said he "won't hesitate to condemn what I consider to be obstinacy that's rooted not in substantive disagreement but in political expedience."

When a sitting president calls for bipartisanship by the opposition – he really means surrender. And if they block his proposals, its "obstinacy" and not political views they hold as strongly as he holds his.

And a related note from Hot Air about part of the article:

At one point in his analysis, Knoller mentions that the first President Bush made the same kind of call in 1990, but Knoller forgets to mention that Bush actually followed through on his claim to bipartisanship to enact a tax hike Democrats demanded. Bush had promised during the 1988 presidential campaign that he would follow in Ronald Reagan’s footsteps and not increase taxes (although Reagan did sign a tax hike), using the phrase “Read my lips — no new taxes!” What was Bush’s reward for that bipartisanship? Democrats used that clip in commercial after commercial in 1992 to call Bush a liar, even though they had demanded it from him.
