Re: Obama's Chief of Staff

Rahm Emanuel is famous for saying "Republicans can go **** themselves." This is the guy Obama has picked for Chief of Staff at the culmination of campaign on which he ran as a "uniter" who would "restore a bipartisan spirit" in Congress. Well, by picking Emanuel, Obama has just signaled to congressional Republicans what he means by "bipartisan." Apparently, in the say way that the word "gay" evolved from meaning "happy" to meaning "homosexual," the word "bipartisan" has evolved from meaning "reaching across party lines" to meaning "go **** yourselves."

(Moderators, I hope I'm not overstepping the line here. I don't know how else to communicate what Emanuel said without coming dangerously near to breaking the rules. If this post does break them, please feel free to delete it; or if you have some edits to suggest to me, I am perfectly willing to change it to match your suggestions.)
