President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney talks in the Oval Office following their lunch. Bitter campaign foes just weeks ago, President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney met for lunch at the White House on Thursday, sitting down with an eye on overlapping interests rather than the sharp differences that defined their presidential contest.

In their first meeting since the election, Obama and the Republican nominee met in the White House's private dining room, fulfilling a promise Obama made in his victory speech the night of Nov. 6.

Romney arrived at the White House early Thursday afternoon in a black SUV, walking into the West Wing alone. He left after staying at the White House for just over an hour.

No big deal. Just 2 socialists having lunch.

Romney is and always has been a liberal. He might as well switch parties.

Part of not being a banana republic is the ability of the rivals for the highest office in the government to still interact socially and civilly.

Should Romney have refused a meeting?

What good would that have done?

Part of pretending we’re not a banana republic.

Bitter foes they indeed were. Or so we thought. But it was all theater (see above sentence.)

Is it possible to disagree with someone and oppose their agenda without acting like a petulant child?

What is the strategic advantage of acting like a sore loser, a la Al Gore?

The President would have loved nothing more than if Romney had refused the invitation.

Who was it who said only man dines with the enemy?

Obama effed Mitt up the butt and now gets to gloat in his face...

...Romney has gone from a mistake on our part to an embarrassment and Obama is gonna play with himself tonight with these images on his mind.

Romney sent a big FU to his donors with this Lunch With Barack nonsense. Good riddance to Mittens and his incompetent campaign advisors. No More RINOS, ever.

Icouldn’t believe the lunch menu—Turkey chili...probably a a little lettuce or maybe a piece of fruit for dessert. OBummer shure didn’t spend as much money for lunch as he usually does. If there were any left-overs, he gave them to the help.
