John McCain to Rush Limbaugh: Calm Down, Reach Across Aisle (2008)

There is no such thing as bipartisanship anymore. Bipartisanship has come to mean one thing: The Democrats get what they want. And we're fed up, and we're certainly not happy and thrilled to hear that that is a resume enhancement for electability. He said it. "I can reach across the aisle, and I can work with the Democrats." Yeah, we know that. And what do you ever get for it? What does the Republican Party get for all of your working with the Democrats? Versus what do they get. They're going to get their global warming deal. They're going to get massive tax increases and incursions on liberty, dealing with this hoax. What do they get with McCain-Feingold? They get the premise that government can shut people up at a certain time. What do they get with McCain-Kennedy? They get amnesty, a never-ending flood of potential new Democrat voters. What do we get when we reach across the aisle? What do we get when we bring Democrats in? Lest we forget, certain Republicans worked with Democrats to get Bill Clinton off the hook during impeachment. We'll always remember that, those brilliant House managers were sold down the river, thrown under the bus, and thrown overboard, all because the Republicans in the Senate didn't want to deal with the problem attached with it.

So once again, we show that we can work with the Democrats, and we can reach across the aisle and we can show a spirit of cooperation, while what really happens is that we lose a little bit of our identity and soul founded within this party each time it happens. Now they're telling us to get over Reagan. There was only one Reagan. You guys gotta get over Reagan. We got people on our side, that's true, that's true, we gotta move on, it's 2008. Well, let's get beyond Vietnam, too, can we?

And those who are wrapped up in the cult of personality right now may find out how those investors in his four bankruptcies felt after his deal-making.

Sadly, those of us who see thru the whipped up emotional frenzy will enjoy the fruits of their efforts with them.

You are missing the point this going to be reversed. Trump is going to force the Democrats to finally accept the conservatives position on issues that makes America great again. Before the Republicans gave every time. At least it will be the other way around.

BS. The dims will never accept anything. They will just re-group and start undermining freedom again. Even Trump cannot beat them into submission.
