We never really believed it anyway. Remember Senator Obama, he who voted with the Democrats 97% of the time, likely the most partisan member of the Senate during his short stay in office (at least when he did make it to chamber for a vote)? On the flip side, remember Candidate Obama who promised to reach across the aisle and work with Republicans in the House and Senate to come to agreements that are sensible for all Americans? He called it bipartisanship.

Bipartisanship to democrats means when republicans vote for everything democrats want...

Its not ‘dead’ because it was never ‘real’ in the first place.

Only a casual observer of politics believes the incoming President wasn’t up to date and deeply involved in Pelosi’s insane spending frenzy.

“Bi-partisanship” = Republicans caving to Democrats.

GOOD!

You can NOT believe a THING you hear out of that “man’s” mouth, office, “Friends” or Employees. Not a single letter.

Who stopped negotiations in its tracks with the simple comment, "I won" in a recent meeting between Congressional Republicans and the President?

Bipartisanship is way overrated. Possums and politicians need to learn that the middle of the road is the worst place to be.

[eclecticEel]

Good.

Bipartisanship was only and always about destroying opposition to Zero.

Quite right. Hussein Obama is George Soros’ and Bill Ayers’ slave. He does what his extreme left wing masters tell him to do, and that doesn’t include reaching out to Conservatives. Hussein Obama has been ordered by his masters to destroy capitalism in the USA and that is exactly what he is doing. Nothing bi-partisan about it.
