President Obama will address the House Republican Conference later this month during their retreat in Baltimore, being held Jan. 28th to 30th.

Obama was invited by the elected GOP Leadership to speak a few weeks ago and will take them up on their offer. ...

Despite that gracious tone, House Minority Whip Eric Cantor wrote this morning in a statement:

“Though it’s welcome news that President Obama will speak with House Republicans later this month, it is important to point out that true bipartisanship requires working together on common-sense solutions and a mainstream agenda to help Americans facing difficult challenges. It is important to ask whether the President plans to meet WITH Republicans, or speak TO them. In 2009, on the rare occasion when we were invited to the White House, the President paid Republican proposals lip service while the cameras were on, only to completely rebuff those ideas afterward. The problems faced by our country have grown too large for the President to respond to Republican and Independent views and solutions with indifference, like in 2009. I hope this is a sign that a new year will bring change.”

There’s nothing like Republicrats unifying with each other.

[pnh102]

These are the Republicans we're supposed to be voting for?

0bama is on practically every TV channel talking about himself, why is the GOP giving him a forum to do the same?

He’d better bring donuts.

These vermin in D.C. just don’t get it.

ping...WTF?

[gwilhelm56]

Unless they can, in unison, announce to FUHRER OBAMA that .... “WILSON WAS RIGHT, WIKSON WAS RIGHT!”
They will always be what we thought.. DEMLITE RINOS

[Pelham]

They aren’t called the Stupid Party for nothing.

Because the GOP is still comitted to style over substance. They think this invite will demonstrate to the American people they are not obstructionists but committed to bi-partisanship. They still do not understand the American people don’t care about bi-partnership when it means they are getting screwed.

So the republicans are going on a retreat with the kenyan, Isn’t that special.

[darkwing104]

The will be no bipartisanship...Obama will remind them with “I won. I trump you on that.”

[Outlaw Woman]

*headline only*

I hope there are plenty of 'Depends' available as well as napkins to wipe the drool off the chins of the rinos.

[sickoflibs]

Saw that. Pretty funny. Maybe Obama is switching parties...

[neodad]

He’d better bring donuts.

No, coffee....

[patriot preacher]

THe Republicans are stupid beyond compare...

[ReformedBeckite]

Obama was invited by the elected GOP Leadership

I want some names of those leaders that invited him, my gut feeling is they are RINO's and need to be kick out of the Republican party.

Not to excited about bi-partisanship with the Democrats considering there is no bi-partisanship on their part with the republicans.

true bipartisanship requires working together on common-sense solutions and a mainstream agenda to help Americans facing difficult challenges

Right. So it is about time obama starts doing his job.

On her way to welfare one morning ,
Down the path along side the lake,
A bleeding-hearted liberal saw a half-frozen snake.
His almond colored skin had been all frosted with the dew,
"Messiah," she cried, "I'll take you in, I'll even vote of you."

"Take me in oh fellow liberal,
Take me in, for allah's sake,
Take me in oh fellow liberal,"
sighed the politician snake.

She wrapped him up all cozy, ‘cause she was wallowing in guilt,
And then laid him by the fireside, with some money and some milk;
That night she hurried home from welfare, and soon as she arrived,
That politician snake she'd taken in was fully revived .

"Take me in oh fellow liberal,
Take me in, for allah's sake,
Take me in oh fellow liberal,"
sighed the politician snake.

Now she gave him all her riches, "You're my messiah!" she cried,
"But if I hadn't voted you in, by now, your career might have died.";
Now she stroked his pretty almond skin, and then she kissed him goodnight,
But instead of saying thanks, the serpent gave her a bite.

"Take me in oh fellow liberal,
Take me in, for allah's sake,
Take me in oh fellow liberal,"
sighed the politician snake.

"But I voted for you," cried that liberal, “And now I see you’ve lied!”,
“You know your bite is lethal, and now I'm going to die”;
"Oh shut up, you stupid liberal," said the serpent with a grin,
"You knew I was a low-down snake, before you voted me in..

"Take me in oh STUPID liberal,
Take me in, for allah's sake,
Take me in oh STUPID liberal,"
LAUGHED the politician snake.
