United We Stand

Ever since the election results, we’ve witnessed a constant barrage of political and media types crying for "Unity across America!"  There’s an expectation for the Republican majority to work closely with Democrats to find a ‘middle ground’ on all the hot topics in government.  But here’s my question:  Why?

Wake up, fellow voters!  Not only was this election not the most contested presidential race in our country’s history, as it is commonly claimed, but George Bush won by the largest majority in 30 years.  That’s right, more people voted for Bush this time around than his father, Reagan, and both Clinton administrations.  Bush’s support has increased since 4 years ago, not decreased.  Our nation is obviously more united now than they have been for 30 years.

As such, it is up to the losers to work with the majority, not the other way around.  You think the Iraqi goverment would let Saddam Hussein argue that, even though losing the war in Iraq, he should get a say in how the goverment is run?   Goodness.
