^ I still don't think so. I think Barry is just trying to say "Alright, I need this, this, and this done. You guys have the option to tell me how to get it done." He ain't gonna budge on his core issues. On spending America into the stone age. I don't think he's trying to be bi-partisan at all. He's giving the American's the old magician trick. Look at this hand while I do something with the other.
I know where I'd tell him to go if I were one of the members of the house. "You weren't willing to negotiate or talk the previous two years, were you, pal? **** off!"
