Obama to meet with Republicans behind closed doors..

[kentuck]

Then they will open the doors for questions from reporters.

It will be interesting TV but no one honestly expects the Republicans to work with the President or anyone else. But they do expect the Repubs to pretend they will work with him. After all, they want jobs. They want healthcare reform. They want deficit reduction, etc. Until they are in power. Then they never, never do anything for the people. That is the reality.

1. What a phony meeting. They will bash him the second he leaves the meeting.

[Winterblues]

3. Some will maybe even most but not all.

Senator Lisa Murkowski from Alaska has had a lot of good things to say about him and his SOTU speech on the record.. I do believe he is starting to get to a few. There is a tiny spot deep within some Republicans where a little humanity still exists, and those are starting to question their actions. People are not happy with Government at the moment and they are a part of government so they are getting anearful and it isn't all tea bagger shit. People want and need government to work especially at this very crucial time in our history..I am starting to believe Obama is on the verge of a major breakthrough..

4. They will change once they see their shit is not working with the voters.

.

Everything is for their political benefit.

7. I would like to see just one with " a tiny spot deep where a little humanity still exists"

2. Gee, I wonder why Brian Lamb isn't insisting it be covered by Cspan cameras.

I'll look forward to the editorial.

[gkhouston]

8. Heck, maybe they'll find bin Laden while they're looking for it, 'cause they're sure

not looking for bipartisanship in this country...

[Subdivisions]

6. Cool! More transparency! n/t

[ThomWV]

9. Has it occured to anyone that what is said after he comes out might depend on what he says while in?

[Coyote_Bandit]

10. More of his promised transparency?

just like the healthcare reform debate.....

[Echo In Light]

13. Taking orders.

[bigtree]

11. he can hammer and cajole them without any independent witnesses

cool.

[FirstLight]

12. hmmmmm

this makes me think of the time when he confronted Lieberman on the Senate floor and the look of FEAR on his face...

I would love to think of it as a "gentleman's ass whuppin'" Obama will sit them down calmly & let them know he is not playing nice anymore and if they want to see his REAL wrath, they can just keep doing what they have been doing...

I think Boehner and the rest of them will come out of that room a little paler...perhaps a bit shaken?

hehe...at least that's MY hope for the meeting ;) KICK some GOP ARSE!

[Lex]

14. Good luck with that, President Obama.

You are a bit like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football Lucy is holding.

[peace frog]

15. Jumpin' Jeebus

Earth to Obama, come in Obama: REPUBLICANS WILL NOT WORK WITH YOU. EVER. THEY WILL SMILE IN YOUR FACE AND STAB YOU IN YOUR BACK. EVERY TIME.

[midnight]

16. Open the doors during the meeting...
