Obama: Republicans Will Have to Learn to Get Along With Me
Published October 13, 2010 | FoxNews.com
President Obama reveals in a magazine article that he is weighing what to do if Republicans win the House majority next month, and has come up with a novel approach: Make the GOP work with him.
In a seeming twist on the post-1994 midterm calculation made by President Bill Clinton -- when Republicans pummeled Democrats in the congressional election -- Obama said he thinks Republicans will have to move in his direction no matter the outcome of the Nov. 2 vote.
"It may be that regardless of what happens after this election, they feel more responsible," he is quoted saying in the Sunday edition of The New York Times Magazine, "either because they didn't do as well as they anticipated, and so the strategy of just saying no to everything and sitting on the sidelines and throwing bombs didn't work for them, or they did reasonably well, in which case the American people are going to be looking to them to offer serious proposals and work with me in a serious way."
Accusing the public of mistaking his abilities, the president also told the magazine that he's a little taken aback that voters are disappointed with the current turn of events in his administration.
"The mythology has emerged somehow that we ran this flawless campaign, I never made a mistake, that we were master communicators, everything worked in lockstep," Obama is quoted saying.

“Tines” thats a farm boy code word. I bet we both came up the same way.
I’d like to set a few tines on the butts of those idjits :-)
:’) Of course, it’s a little insulting to reptiles...
Obama is a fascist, not a Marxist.

And historical analysis proves it.
Why is it important? Marxism and Fascism are two very different animals. Each one requires a different weapon to kill it.
The pols need to feel like they're going to get a tine in the butt if they don't start representing the people. It's far less than they deserve if they don't.
Oh, what a FINE quote from Krauthammer. Reptilian. Perfect.
