Bipartisanship

Yesterday Nancy Pelosi made the following statement in response to a suggestion that Democrats would run roughshod over Republicans should they control both congress and the White House:

"But I do tell you that if the Democrats win and have substantial majorities, Congress of the United States will be more bipartisan."

Now at first you might be tempted to think she has plainly stated an oxymoron. But that would only be because you don't know the Democrat definition of "bipartisan." To Democrats, bipartisan means you abandon your position and adopt the liberal one. Then we are all happy, and that's bipartisanship.
