Bush To New Dem Majority in Washington: Do As I Say, Not As I've Always Done

Isn't it a tad ironic that President Bush, who insisted when first "selected" that he was the president for both Democrats and Republicans (I guess Independents don't count), yet defiantly refused to let any Dem have a voice or a seat at the table, now is all but ordering the new Dem majority to behave in a non-partisan way?

Ironic, but hardly unexpected.

Personally, I think everyone loses in a situation as we've had especially the last six years. Increasingly, the majority of American voters in many states register as Independents rather than one of the two primary parties. In fact, a large percentage of Americans cannot identify any other party but those two.

I do expect that the Dems will NOT be anywhere near as tyrannical as the Senate of Bill Frist and the House of Hastert and DeLay and Boehner (and what a boner he is, too). But the president is probably going to have to stop ordering everyone around every minute like the miserable little grade school bully he is.
