Super Bonus Political Quote of the Day

From President Barack Obama while dismissing GOP concerns about the pork-laden stimulus bill:

I won.

Yes, you did. But since we don't give presidents dictatorial powers in this country, you had better learn how to deal with the opposition or you'll be in for a very long four years.

And only four years.

You may be able to pass much of your agenda with little or no GOP support, but keep in mind, that means you own it lock, stock and barrel. If it works, good for you, but if it doesn't, it's all yours, big boy. If nothing else you better learn how to involve the GOP in your plans for political cover.

Rookie mistake.
