ahh, he just wanted a hug and some acknowledgement that he's still there.
President Barack Obama has an important new ally as emboldened Republicans work to derail his agenda: John McCain.The shift is striking: The 2008 rivals never got along throughout Obama’s first term in office. McCain has been Obama’s chief tormentor on issues ranging from the budget to Benghazi, tartly saying in late 2010 that the two men had “no relationship.”Yet during one of Obama’s toughest times as president, there was McCain, sitting down last week with him in the Oval Office for a private strategy session. At the urging of new White House chief of staff Denis McDonough, who has sought better ties with Republicans, Obama has had more substantive discussions with McCain in the past five months than he did in his first four years in office, according to associates of both men. Suddenly, the two are working together on issues ranging from immigration to the deficit.“I’m getting nervous,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), McCain’s closest friend in the Senate. “I told Denis McDonough, ‘I don’t know what you’ve done: You’ve hijacked him.’”
you can lie to everyone indefinitely but you can only lie to yourself for a few seconds.
he knew what he was doing and saying was just making him look like a sour prune, he also knows the ridiculousnes of his party and their spin all approach, he also can read all of the polls not just FOX and Rassmussen.
"Ever since the election, we've had conversations and phone calls," McCain told POLITICO in an interview. "And I think we share many agenda items that we can work on together, ranging from immigration reform, the prison in Guantánamo, to working perhaps on a grand bargain, security of our embassies and consulates. There are a bunch of issues that we share."
and still he chose to follow the party line and obstruct and disavow, why now why not when he was recieving all these calls after the election. you can't blame Pres., for not drinking with people who have for 5 years done nothing but try an disqualfy him as an American, a Pres. as anything other then another, not to mention the bigge McConnell, "our number one job is to make Barack Obama a one term President", and expressed no willingness to help or cooperate.
right wing still after all they have and have not done come up with, "he doesn't reach out to us".
they never gave or said any of those things conducive to cordial meetings after hours, why because they have never been cordial just racist radicals trying to bring down the Black guy that served them twice on the way to the White House.
Pres. is a man and not to proud to do his job can't say that about the others.
