Toward the end of his first interview on Fox News Sunday in 8 years, President Obama talked about the challenge of getting things done in Washington in such a partisan atmosphere. “Nobody’s going to be 100 percent satisfied in a democracy like ours with every outcome,” the president said, adding, “I think the danger, both among Republicans, and among Democrats, who increasingly just listen to each other.

Obama continued: “…they’ve got their own publications, their own blogs. Democrats, same thing. Increasingly what happens is, we don’t hear each other.”
