That is Pres. Obama's way.

But, I sure liked the pissed off Barack we all saw today!

It would legitimize the horrible, lying racist crap that Romney is uttering.

isn't who Pres. Obama is.

He is never vengeful. We may be. But he's not.

Romney lost because he was a flip flopping, pandering, compulsive liar that could not be trusted by even his own party. He got fewer votes than McCain. And with all the faults that Romney claims Obama has, he still won.

Yes, Obama won because he did what people wanted. How terrible! At least Romney knows that the way to get ahead in politics is to not do what people want. He sure showed them.

Not that I thought Obama should sit down with Romney anyway, unless it's to see if he wants to run a Dachshund Olympics or Dancing Horse Festival or something.

Dachshund Olympics!!!

Romney's comments in the NYT were beyond delusional and should be offensive to the president and anyone who voted for him. Who knows if Willard would even agree to meet. It's a waste of everyone's time anyway.

as long as it's basically a repeat of the third presidential debate.

as long as he says something like, "Hey, Mitt, come on in; sit down and have a glass of milk and a cookie. Don't get crumbs on the rug. By the way, don't forget that you lost and I won. So tell me why I should give a half a shit about anything you and your hateful, knuckledragging, pathetic excuse of a political party think. Can't think of a reason? Bye, then. Thanks for dropping by."

I would actually be pretty surprised if Romney wanted to visit with the Prez even if invited. Doing so would put Romney on a lesser footing - he'd be invited to the White House, which Obama still inhabits (and Romney doesn't). It would rankle terribly, and I bet Romney couldn't stand to do it. If Obama invites him and he refuses, which I kind of expect might happen, Romney would look like a resentful ass. Which he is.

What motivation does Romney have to meet with the President?

Love of Country?

Just let that fucker fade into obscurity... although I'm sure he'll be doing damage behind the scenes.

IMO the country is pretty sick of Tea-gangster dick-headedness

So it's fine with me if the President makes another fair effort to work with the opposition, just as long as he understands what their response is likely to be: but I'm pretty confident that by now he does understand what their response is likely to b

but as I said, it legitimizes the foul crap that Romney is spewing and that is not OK.

Mitt Romney was the Republican nominee and a former Governor. He has through his campaign said many things and perhaps some of those might be beneficial to the nation. I see nothing wrong with being courteous and talking with the man. I personally don't care for him nor what I heard from him in the campaign, but being civil and perhaps finding one good idea would be worthwhile.

Folk who just voted for Obama are unlikely to go there; folk who haven't been paying attention still won't be paying attention; and the hardcore wackadoodles will always be hardcore whackadoodles no matter what happens

And I am so happy the voters rewarded that with victory, rather than R$ and his petty nature.

He is a very generous person in that way. Or could it be a little stab...come visit me in the Oval Office and then leave and I'll stay...probably not...that's not his style.

I wish that wanker would move to Grand Cayman so he can hug is money.

McCain had in theory political sway in the government but his own party doesn't even like Romney. Romney could walk out of a meeting agreeing to everything Obama said and so what is Boehner going to listen to Romney? Is FOX news going to fall in line with Romney? Last point on this: meeting with McCain was a waste of time because it turns out even he had little sway and helped not at all the next 4 years. 4 years later Romney ran saying Obama was a partisan thug... even after being so nice to McCain. So if the other side doesn't even appreciate the token gesture... why bother?

Obama is not talking to Romney. He is talking to those folks who voted for Romney who were on the fence.

Not the crazies. Those people are gone.

But, Fox news has helped many people, some good people, become confused.

Obama can reach out to them, by talking to Romney a little right after the election.

In a few months, Romney is irrelevant. And we should all ignore them.

He is not writing off those who voted for R$ as the Rs would do when they win.

sit down and give and take with the President.

that person you are responding to is VERY lucky I can't have a of piece of him/her. In answer to your question, yeah a right wing troll hating on our POTUS and can't stand it that he beat the crap out of mittshit..

A mandate on ending tax cuts for the rich. Sixty percent of Americans (including 42 percent of Republicans) agree:

"Yeah, why would you sit down with the most successful and charitable businessman to run for President in 60 years during this horrible economy? "

Even his daddy didn't agree with him: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021792260

is a mystery. It does not.

And please. Do you actually believe that the President is winging it on his own. Grab a clue and learn a thing or two, honeypie.

Oh, and get your filth being back to the slimy underside of the bridge where you belong.

Romney is only considered a "great businessman" because he dismantled a bunch of stuff, and because he traded on his father's name. When he had to build something, like a ground team for his election, he was a miserable failure.

Also, he's a lying sack.

47% of the country still supported Romney so it is a good gesture to show the public that you can put aside past battles and find common ground.

What a waste of time.

President Obama. So hopefully the issue is moot.

Romney, I would really have to wonder. Romney is so craven and insubstantial, I think it would cheapen Obama to have a conversation with him.

I think if he gave Romney an appointment, I'd be sick. But why are we all speculating about that? There is nothing out there to say he's considering it is there?

K&R

and all of the liars, cheaters, thugs, and repug criminals to the White House so we could perp walk their asses into jail.

..... how much you want to bet, If PO invites him to the WH, that Romney turns him down?

you are right, they have not stopped lying.

You include Obama, you're in for a VERY frustrating four years. He won, get over it!

I mean the two aren't exactly fond of each other. And what are they going to talk about? Mitt chillaxing on the Cayman Islands? Him passing out in his car elevator? How many lies he can tell in under a minute?

Don't let him near you, the man is a pox.

Invite the fucker so he can see what it looks like. And then tell the POS, "This house that you will never, ever occupy belongs to the people of this nation. Not you, not Bain, and not your fucking Super PACS. By the way, fuck you."
He'll never say that because he is much more classy than I am.

I think Romney could "CARE LESS" about getting with the President at this moment...

It was making sure people like college students and people with pre-existing conditions didn't get SCREWED! He was using his job as President to, you know, HELP PEOPLE!!!

and greet him with : Welcome to the House that MY people built...for free. That alone ought to warm your heart. Now get the fuck outta here before I send some their ancestors to open up a very large bottle of whup ass on you.

the opposing side like switching courts and getting the ball back in play.

If he does that, it's to show he's a good sport. R$ is not, but the POTUS never lowers himself to a lower level.

A nice helpful staff member leading him to his seat.
