Obama Bipartisanship Vs. Bush "Bipartisanship"

"I guarantee you this is not bipartisan."
-- John McCain in crazy man rant

Republicans, on every TV show they can get booked on, are railing against Barack Obama and his apparent "Orwellian" tactics and complete lack of bipartisanship.  Trouble is, two weeks into his presidency, Barack Obama has already met with the opposition party in the House as many times as President Bush did in  the entirety of his eight years.  The product of these talks?  The removal of family planning funding, reduced spending on mass transit, and the conversion of infrastructure spending into tax cuts....Result?  0 Republicans voted for the package.
