The Era Of Post-Partisanship...Eh, Never Mind

Barack the Obamessiah campaigned on promises of hope-change-unity and post-partisanship.  Less than a week after officially becoming President, he has decreed that the era of post-partisanship is over:

During a morning meeting with congressional leaders from both parties, President Obama acknowledged the philosophical differences between his stimulus package and the Republican plan – but, sources familiar with the conversation said, Obama then noted: "I won."…

But perhaps taking a cue from Obama's "I won" line when Democrats were asked if they were concerned about Republicans blocking the package, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid had a swift one-word answer: "No."

Hot Air observes:

Vintage O: Always willing to hear the other side out, never willing to actually vote with them.

Ah, the glorious era of post-partisanship...it was nice while it lasted.

There's my two cents.
