Mitch McConnell was whining about how Obama wouldn't invite him to the White House for a one-on-one.
A couple of weeks ago, Trent Lott called up Tom Daschle (can't imagine who put Lott up to that), who called the White House and suddenly McConnell gets his invite to meet with President Obama.
Then just within the past couple of days, it comes out that one of McConnell's goals for the next two years is...........guess what? Not to work on health care, taxes, foreign policy, the economy, the military, climate change, but to make sure that Barack Obama will be a one term President.
If McConnell has to wait another two years for his next invite to the White House, at least he won't have to ask if it was something he said.

3. And why should we believe Mitch that this is true? |
|
I seem to recall that President Obama has stated on a number of occasions that he is always available, that his door is always open to any congress person who would like to come by. I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't a trumped up thing just to add to Mitch's list of whatever he's compiling to make the President look bad.
It may be true he asked Trent Lott to call Daschle... but why not have his aide call the WH and set up an appointment? Sounds ridiculous to me.
