Bush Vows to Reach Out to Democrats

(AP) -- WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites) is striking twin themes for a second term, vowing to fight hard for his political agenda while reaching across the aisle to Democrats.

Come on now Mr. President, didn't the last four years of petty, kneejerk, obstructionist bullshit teach you anything? These schmucks aren't going to like you, they aren't going to work with you, so stop trying to reach out to them in hopes that they will.

My only hope is the American people understand that the President is at least making the effort to reach across party lines and it's the Democrats that are being unreasonable. I for one would like to see the Dems lose even more seats in 2006. Three elections in a row's gotta be a record.
