The right wing opposes
everything the president suggests.
Details don’t matter.
His ideas must fail so he will.
He won’t, but bipartisanship did.

Many liberals see Obama
as too conservative, conciliatory,
accepting of bad Bush policies.
Republican extremists ignore these clues
and call Barack a fascist socialist.

Whatever their motivation,
conviction, obtuseness, or racism,
the parties can’t work together.
Perhaps Democrats will,
and finally master partisanship.
