It was inevitable --- as soon as the Republicans lost power, I knew the gasbags would insist that it's time to let bygones be bygones and meet the Republicans halfway in the spirit of a new beginning. GOP politicians have driven the debt sky-high and altered the government so as to be nearly unrecognizable, so logically the Democrats need to extend the hand of conciliation and move to meet them in the middle --- the middle now being so far right, it isn't even fully visible anymore.
Isn't it funny that these people were nowhere to be found when George W. Bush seized office under the most dubious terms in history, having been appointed by a partisan supreme court majority and losing the popular vote? If there was ever a time for a bunch of dried up, irrelevant windbags to demand a bipartisan government you'd think it would have been then, wouldn't you? (How about after 9/11, when Republicans were running ads saying Dems were in cahoots with Saddam and bin Laden?) But it isn't all that surprising. They always assert themselves when the Democrats become a majority; it's their duty to save the country from the DamnFuc*ingHippie's who are far more dangerous than Dick Cheney could ever be.
Here's how one of the greatest Democratic Presidents got a little partisan, and I say that, cause partisanship - "it's a good thing."

Funny how the dregs of that elitist society have emerged from the gutters of their own wombs to see the benefits of togetherness.
How soon they forget, "It's MY WAY, or the HIGHWAY!"
The GOP is senile.
They are more into "themselves" and an easy gig/ego than doing what they were elected for! ; (
