It is time for the Obama adminstration to kick

faux bi-partisanism in the teeth.

It has become like Lucy Van Pelt setting the kick for Charlie Brown and jerking back-- TIME AFTER TIME.
I hear the latest GOP offer of bipartisanism over healthcare.
Right.
It is time to kick Lucy in the head.

1. Way past time.

But if Obama hasn't figured that out yet, I'm not sure he ever will.

2. Dean asks for support for public option

That doesn't even have as many guarantees as Kennedy and Obama - he gets rousing support.

Obama and Kennedy get nothing but grief.

Does anybody not see the disconnect here?

3. Yeah - the disconnect is that no one reads.

Everyone thinks that they're an armchair politician, but few bother to actually read and try to understand the policy. Which is exactly why you had a two-term president that thought "With us or against us" was tantamount to a policy paper.

4. And popularity

As soon as the right person tells them to support the Kennedy plan, they will. Wait and see.
