Republican Vision of Bipartisanship

means we come to the table hat in hand pleading with them to do the right thing. You know actually it's worse than that. They want us come into that shit subdued, bowed and with our tails between our legs before they will even "THINK" about discussing whatever the issue at hand is.

Meanwhile, Republicans feel it's their "right" to call names, bully, accuse, attack, slander, smear, and attack some more. Then after they serve up multiple courses of that shit and we question why nothing is getting done we are supposed to pull back up to the table ask for more and cow-tow to their demands; no negotiation, just surrender to whatever sicko whims their fevered minds can conjure up.

However, I don't think we need to do that. I've realized as I've gotten older how fast bullies back down when you call them on their BS. For better or worse it's actually something I enjoy doing now. Amazing how fast they back down when confronted with facts.
