Many say that now that Barack Obama has been elected, we should all work together for the common good. That sounds wonderful until you realize that we don't all agree on what is the common good.
Notice I don't take the position that Republicans should refuse to cooperate with Mr. Obama because Democrats have been indescribably partisan, cruel and unfair to President Bush for the past eight years. Those are certainly grounds to call them hypocrites, but we must always put the best interests of the nation above petty partisanship -- obviously.
So we must ask: Would it be in the best interest of the nation for Republicans to work with Barack Obama?
The only sensible answer is: It depends on what policies Obama pursues. As much as people want to believe that getting along is the highest good, there are many more important things.
If Democrats were being honest, they would agree with that statement. Otherwise, they owe us an explanation as to why they opposed President Bush at every turn. Could it be they think their ideas on Iraq, the war on terror, education, stem cell research, judges, the environment, immigration and the rest are more important to them than simply getting along? I thought so.

If bi-partisanship means caving into what is harmful to the nation: NO THANKS!
EXACTLY!!!! Bipartisanship = Republicans bending over and taking it. NO THANKS.
Why not just have everyone vote his consience and leave it at that? Or is that too naive?
They would take credit if it would turn out well and blame US if it wouldn’t. NO THANKS.
