I am sure he is not really believing anything he HAD to say today, but he had to say it.
Don't give up on him yet!
Could someone please explain to me why Bush can't or won't learn this lesson?
They run Congress now!! Duh! What is he supposed to do?

Because he worked very successfully with a Democrat Lt. Gov. in Texas and hoped it would be the model for how he could operate in DC.
It's just that DC operates with it's own rules and while the Dims are out there today, saying that they are going to work with the President in a Bi-partisan manner, they just don't know how to walk the talk.
I don't think that they can change their modus operandi after 6 years of bucking this President.
I'm hoping that the President has dusted off his VETO pen and uses it, quite liberally in the remaining 2 years of his Presidency.
Also, do you think that there are voters who voted for Democrats yesterday who woke up this Morning and are thinking, "Oh heck, I didn't think my rebellion vote for the other party would result in this landslide. I just wanted to scare the heck outta my Republican (Congress Critter, Governor) to get them to stop this profligate spending"????
