Passing the Bill without Party Support

The Stimulus bill just passed and from my previous post I'm sure it is quite obvious I do not feel it was a great idea. But it was a rather large mistake passing it without support from each party. The decision to pass the bill was so rushed that many people did not even get a chance to read it, and comprehend what it all contained. What it also did was put a even greater division between the parties that existed before.
So far in the Obama presidency the term bi-partisanship has been on display, and was a major part of his election campaign focusing on how important it would be to have each party cooperating to accomplish things.
What the stimulus bill being passed did was prove that each party approving of the bill didn't matter. The republicans opposed to the bill were shut out of the meeting, and did not have any input in what the bill contained, and could not stop it from being passed. This is where party politics has failed. Each party is not represented, meaning half of Americans are not represented. With one party not being allowed to even participate the party system has not accomplished its purpose, and certainly Obama has failed at bi-partisanship.
