Don't "test my will" but "let's discuss a way forward"

what's wrong with this picture...?
President Bush and Democratic leaders yesterday toned down the talk of the last several weeks and hinted at a willingness to compromise.

While warning Congress not to test his will by sending him another bill that includes a withdrawal date, President Bush said: “I invite the leaders of the House and the Senate, both parties, to come down, you know, soon after my veto so we can discuss a way forward.” He later issued an official invitation for Congressional leaders to meet at the White House on Wednesday.

The boldness of Senate Democrats has only seemed to swell as the war debate has worn on. Yesterday, they said they remained committed to carrying out what they believed to be the will of the American people to change direction in Iraq. But, like Mr. Bush, they also indicated a readiness to negotiate.

of course, there's always room to talk... keeping the lines of communication open is always a good thing... but compromise...? the democrats should know after 6+ years that bush only lays traps, he doesn't negotiate, he doesn't compromise... he and his criminal compadres are interested in one thing and one thing only - getting their way - and they aren't going to settle for anything less...
