The enemy is small but incredibly powerful, they mount assaults all across the globe on people everywhere but are like terror cells, operating independently but driven by the same philosophies and practicing the same ruthlessness. The enemy is both foreign and domestic and has more destructive power than any army.
They literally wrap themselves in flags (at least flag pins) but if you were to make a checklist of all of America's founding and ongoing principles, as a democracy and society, you'd find a substantial Republican checklist of things they despise.
President Obama has indeed brought bipartisanship to Washington DC...in a chorus against change.
He gave everything he had to win the election...except tax returns, principled stands, the truth, compassion and the same answer to the same questions.

The Weeper of the House and the effort by those in his caucus to make him cry.
When it comes to being tone deaf and tone blind and tone dumb, the Repub's have cornered the market in 2012.
The GOP claims to be the party of law and order but fights to let terrorists and the mentally ill people buy semi-automatics at gun shows. Some might call this hypocrisy but Republican marketing guru Frank Luntz might use a snappy, focus group tested phrase for it like, "Freedumb".
The Republican Party wants to resurface as a reasonable alternative to the Democrats but they are underwater and have an anchor tied around their ankles, named The Tea Party.
