How not to make friends in Washington D.C. (a.k.a) when Bipartisanship just won’t work out.


Dear President Barack Obama.

I think it is nice of you to keep your campaign promise about reaching across the aisle. It shows that you are serious about making America work again. But it’s time to get real!!! Relationships don’t always work out the way we want them to. People fall out over money issues, commitment issues, and sometimes stimulus packages. Mr. President, you have bent over backwards like a stripper at a bachelor party. But you have got to face it! The Republicans just don’t like you. Rush Limbaugh said he hopes you fail. Fox News thinks that your wife is the second coming of Angela Davis. And conservative bloggers think that you are a Marxist. It’s just not working Mr. President. Now your pick for Commerce Secretary left you hanging like grandma’s laundry. U.S. Senator Judd Gregg knew your policies before he accepted the job. Now all of a sudden he has “irresolvable conflicts” over the stimulus package. Where has this guy been for the past month? You have been talking about passing a stimulus since last December. He waited until the 13th hour to get brand new on you Mr. President. That is some shady behavior to me. You could be passing a kidney stone and the Republicans would block that. The dream of everyone working together is not going to happen. RNC Chairman Michael Steele is a brother and he is even giving you hell. You are going to have to learn to let it go. You are definitely not going to get any help from Nancy Pelosi. She is what many Republicans hate most………….a San Francisco Democrat. It’s obvious that she is going to make the Republicans pay for the last 8 years. It’s pointless to keep going in this direction. Cut your losses and move on. Mr. President, they are just not that into you.
