Senior White House Aide: This Whole Dinner With Republicans Thing Is A Gigantic Waste of Time We're Doing Just to Impress the Media

No.

Don't say that. Take it back.

You wanted it just as much as me.

“This is a joke. We’re wasting the president’s time and ours,” complained a senior White House official who was promised anonymity so he could speak frankly. “I hope you all (in the media) are happy because we’re doing it for you.”

Another said the president was sincerely trying to find common ground with stubborn Republicans. “But if we do it,” the aide hastened, “it won’t be because we had steaks and Merlot with a few senators.”…

Obama's "common ground" is what it's always been: His ultraliberal agenda. Of course Republicans always have the option of just giving him everything he wants; he's always been terribly kind about keeping that option open to them.

But what are the odds they'd actually take that option? Better than you'd think: the further negotiations on Amnesty have produced a plan very similar to the first negotiations on Amnesty, which you hate: instant legal status without any additional border enforcement.
