From the Hill. Bush already devising a divide and conquer strategery.

[Dr.Phool]

I found this over at TPM.

I guess the chimp figures the only way he can survive the next 2 years is to divide and conquor the Dems. And in my opinion, he found the perfect groups to help him do it. Blue Dogs, and the DLC (AKA "New Democrats").

Is it just me? But this, along with Reyes talking about increasing troop levels in Iraq, just has me shaking my head in disgust, saying, here we go again.

Let's party.

From The Hill ...

President Bush has invited leaders of the conservative Blue Dog and New Democrat coalitions to the White House Friday to discuss areas of “mutual cooperation” in the words of one Democratic Congressional aide.

The outreach comes at a time when Bush’s image on Capitol Hill and around the country has taken a serious beating. The meeting is scheduled just two days after the Iraq Study Group is scheduled to release its findings and one day after the Senate Armed Services Committee plans to hold hearings on them.

Reps. Alan Boyd (Fla.), Dennis Moore (Kan.) and Mike Ross (Ark.) will represent the Blue Dogs, a coalition of usually southern, conservative-leaning Democrats and Reps. Joe Crowley (N.Y.), Artur Davis (Ala.), Ron Kind (Wis.), Adam Smith (Wash.) and Ellen Tauscher (Calif.) are set to represent the New Democrats, a group of business-friendly centrists, at the meeting, which the president is expected to attend.

And the Dems won't have the we don't have a majority pity line anymore. But (my husband already giving them their cop out) they can't do anything wihout the White House. It's not their fault! Damn that Bush! We can't do anything!

Well, I guess the election changed nothing then huh? Oh I have my expectations on very low. Others around here have the moon on their list and think the planet was saved. We'll see.
