The Bipartisan Foot Of The Purple Werewolf

Here is pictured a symbol I created to represent President Obama's willingness to "reach across the aisle" and work with Republicans as well as his centrist way of governing. It is called "The Bi-Partisan Foot Of The Purple Werewolf." If you'll notice in my larger painting, "Meet Me At Center Court As I Turn Into A Werewolf", that though the werewolf President Obama has two legs, he only has one foot to show that he takes into account both Republican and Democratic points of view. President Obama had to flip many red states and turned them blue in order to win the election so he knows he can't lean too far to the left in his policies if he wants to get re-elected in those more conservative states.

It is a shame that though Obama has made outward gestures toward Republicans in the House and Senate, such as holding a party to honor John McCain, most of them have repeatedly said "No!" to his ideas and voted against his recent stimulus bill. But as President Obama said in a recent news conference, he believes in persistence and it won't be long before you start seeing a few Republican werewolves in Washington showing a little purple in their fur from their red mixing in with Obama's blue, just as some men show a little gray in their beard. Just give it time because hair color has a way of changing.
