WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Sen. John McCain says that Democratic lawmakers putting together an economic stimulus plan are no more open to input from the opposing party than the GOP was during the Bush administration.

The Arizona Republican says that he thought there was going to be a change in the tone of partisanship in Washington when the Obama administration took over, but he adds that he's not seeing it.

McCain says he favors an economic stimulus bill about half the size of the $820 billion package the Democrats favor.

Hmmm...that explains THIS.

[stockstrader]

I would have thought that comment would have come from Reid or Pelosi!! Thanks, John...lol

Shut up with your bipartisan crap McCain. The Dems will never be “bipartisan”. They are out for themselves. You must be brain dead to have worked up there for decades now and can’t see that. And when a Republican is “bipartisan” it means they have to turn into a Democrat. You are a silly old coot McCain.

To: John "Leave 'em Behind" McCain

Go the Hell away.

[mass55th]

What an a$$.

[beaversmom]

And for McCain’s information, President Bush did just about all the reaching across the aisle that a human could possibly do, and drew back a bloodied hand each time.

[ritewingwarrior]

Just goes to show we need to start really weeding through our ‘12 candidates now. McCain is not going to be it again.

McCain: Democrats no more bipartisan than GOP

Failing in his bid for President, John McCain campaigns for Captain Obvious.

[Just A Nobody]

Did he sleep thru the Ted Kennedy Education Bill?

Perhaps...but he slept WITH him during the McCain-Kennedy Shamnesty bill!

What a moroon! With my apologies to moroons.

[svcw]

It is more than idiot - he is a liar.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

The point being...HE’S STILL IN FAVOR OF A PORKULUS BILL, just one that doesn’t cost as much.

For now. They can come back for more money later. *Rolleyes*

[Ceebass]

A hopelessly out of touch imbecile who thinks he’s saying what others believe.

Still, he’d be better than the thug who’s up there now.

Not much "reaching across the aisle" these days, Juan, now that the Dems have a solid majority? Will you ever learn?
