In normal times...
We would cheer a President that was making decisions without regards to Party.

We would praise a President that put his country over his Party and made his decisions in a pragmatic way on what he thought would best work.

We would applaud a President that tried to work in a bi-partisan way to find the best solutions to our problems.

We would welcome a President that was willing to accept the ideas of the other Party if he thought they had the better ideas.

But these are not normal times.

We just survived 8 years of the most destructive Presidency of our lifetimes and have suffered greatly under the supply-side theories of Ronald Reagan and George W Bush.

We need a 180-degree change in direction.

We don't need more wars. We don't need more taxcuts. We don't need more bullshit about Ronald Reagan. We don't need "bi-partisan" deals with radical failures. We have seen all we need to see. We want to see the change that was promised.
