(Community Matters) Bipartisanship doesn’t mean compromising on basic philosophical approaches to rescuing our economy or implementing social policies. The GOP purports to have found their fiscally responsible religion but they got us where we are by abdicating all oversight and responsibility to history’s worst president and his administration. And, they continue to trumpet their tired old rhetoric for more tax cuts.
We obviously need at least two Senate votes to pass legislation but we don’t need to patronize the party led in part by Rush Limbaugh who admittedly doesn’t want Obama’s administration to be successful.

Neverthless, President Obama spent a good part of today in caucus with Republican members of Congress. Seeking input and explaining his position is being bipartisan. And, I’m glad he earlier this week was honest enough to remind the GOP that he’d won, they lost. The ideas he promoted during the election were voted on and approved by the American people.
