Eventually Obama is going to have to ignore Republicans and do what is needed...

[Blackhatjack]

Obama's attempt to bring Repubs and Independents to the table to hammer out bipartisan solutions to our most pressing problems IS NOT WORKING.

Reality is: Repubs will not work in a bipartisan manner for the benefit of the nation. Repubs will place party above country and will do everything possible to see that Obama 'fails.'

The stakes are too high to let Repubs 'water down' needed Government Action to rescue the Economy and our jobs.

Continue taking the issues to the people and further isolate the Tom Delay/Limbaugh/Boehner wing of the Repub Party.

Otherwise, I fear that Obama's efforts will earn public admiration but fail to deliver the needed punch that only the Government can provide right now.
