News that Obama and McCain are meeting today, along with Obama chief of staff-pick Rahm Emanuel and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), got me to thinking ... what might that conversation be like?
Obama: John, thanks for meeting with me today.
McCain: My friend, it's a real pleasure.
Obama: I hope you don't mind, but I've invited Rahm and Lindsey to join us.
McCain: Not at all. Hello there, my friends.
Emanuel: John, this is important. Don't fuck it up.
McCain: Thank you, my friend. That shouldn't be a problem. I can't remember the last time I fucked up something as big as ... oh. Well. Thank you.
Graham: John, just like the white winged dove sings a song, sounds like she's singing ... Oh wait, I'm Lindsey Graham? I always think I'm Lindsey Buckingham.
McCain: I do too, Linds. Must be the hair.
Obama: Gentlemen, let's get started, shall we? I was hoping we could spend the first few minutes talking about climate and energy. Because climate change has come to America.
Emanuel: Climate! Dead! Oil! Dead! American auto industry! Dead!
Obama: As my chief of stab so rightly puts it, we have some problems.
McCain: That we do, my friend. That we do. And as you know, I've long been a maverick on this issue, unafraid to stand alone.
Graham: You can go your own way. You can call it another lonely day.
Obama: That's exactly why I've called you here, John. I was hoping you might be willing to serve as my Secretary of Climate Bills That Almost Pass. I think it's going to be a busy few years in that department.
McCain: My friend, I'd be honored.
Obama: Great. And before we move on, I'd just like to thank you for being so gracious about my victory, John. I truly, deeply appreciate it.
McCain: My friend, my friend.
Graham: The landslide brought us down.

The auto bail out will have to wait until Jan. Repubs want to commit national/global economic suicide, they have cash squirreled away from the bush kleptocracy.
Buy assets cheap during this looming greater depression? Yep, that's what they have in mind.
Along with revenge against the voters, especially auto unions. They want the auto industry to emerge from bankruptcy in the red "right to work" states.
Where locals demand nothing because they can barely read due to warehouse education. That's the way the plantation/mcmansion owners want it.
