The Maverick was in a particularly bi-partisany mood last night<\/a>.<\/p>\n

[President Obama] first addressed right-wing criticisms that he is overseeing out-of-control spending by noting the situation he faced when he took office…The camera then cut to Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), who leaned over to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and appeared to whisper, \u201cBlame it on Bush.\u201d The two men then laughed.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Well, everyone agrees we need jobs — right<\/a>?<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Sen. John McCain said he wouldn’t support President Barack Obama’s push for a new jobs bill, saying it would just be a repeat of failed policy.<\/p>\n

“It’s a stimulus bill again. It’s failed.”<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

OK, then. What about bringing the US military into the 21st century<\/a>?<\/p>\n

\n
\n

\u201cIn his State of the Union address, President Obama asked Congress to repeal the \u2018Don\u2019t Ask, Don\u2019t Tell\u2019 policy. […] At a time when our Armed Forces are fighting and sacrificing on the battlefield, now is not the time to abandon the policy<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Extra Mavericky!<\/p>\n

What about the whole speech, Mav<\/a>?<\/p>\n

\n
\n

\u201cI think that the American people don\u2019t really enjoy these pauses of seeing members of Congress jump up and down like juveniles<\/strong>,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s just — these are very difficult times. Seems to me we ought to maybe restrain ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I think McSame needs to mix in a few extra naps. He sounds very grouchy these days.<\/p>\n
