Dear President Obama,
The Republicans, as a general broad conservative group, don't like you. It doesn't matter that you've turned around and are letting them ride bareback in your nether regions, without lube, in public, while they film it.
Making concessions on things like DADT and not prosecuting/exposing those who approved torture will not get your healthcare bill passed. Appealing to the public, however, just might.
I understand that you are not the second coming. I understand that you are a politician in a very complicated situation and that you want a full eight years to stem the tide of blood America is hemorrhaging from the wound the previous Administration so callously ripped into her side. But slowly becoming a Mean Girl (TM) while Pledging the Republican Sorority won't actually help with that.
It might be heady to have such a high approval rating right now. But your campaign stirred people to movement, and they're still moving. Moving means they're observing their power to create change as much as they're observing you.
Please, go back to being a leader. Bipartisanship is not a dirty word, but America needs a true Statesman more than it needs a Politician. Where did your certainty of that fact go?
-Willow
