WASHINGTON -- President Obama warned Republicans on Capitol Hill today that they need to quit listening to radio king Rush Limbaugh if they want to get along with Democrats and the new administration.
"You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package.
One White House official confirmed the comment but said he was simply trying to make a larger point about bipartisan efforts.
"There are big things that unify Republicans and Democrats," the official said. "We shouldn't let partisan politics derail what are very important things that need to get done."
That wasn't Obama's only jab at Republicans today.
While discussing the stimulus package with top lawmakers in the White House's Roosevelt Room, President Obama shot down a critic with a simple message.
"I won," he said, according to aides who were briefed on the meeting. "I will trump you on that."
The response was to the objection by Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.) to the president's proposal to increase benefits for low-income workers who don't owe federal income taxes.

This is scary !!! And take a look at what else our new president said
"I won" he said "I will trump you on that " to an objection on a proposal.
We are in Big trouble and I would like to Thank all the liberal drones that voted for him. He had absolutely no experience the only thing he did was register 150,000 people to vote when he was a community organizer according to his own website. When he was in the senate in 2004 he voted "present " instead of making a decision when he wasnt promoting his books.
Why is he qualified to be our president ?
Don't any drones think it odd that the first thing our new presdient did was to close Gitmo? Is closing Gitmo more important than our economic issues?
