Things like Budgets and even heath care are built on compromise. Other things maybe not so much. Our recent victory with Federal parks Carry was because of "compromise". I personally don't believe these new issues require any compromise. We've hit back pretty hard and the Obamian forces are starting to show retreat, while we seem to be moving forward in our cause, and there are signs that the public is seeing things "our way" even though some on our side seem more than willing to throw the Obamian dogs a bone. It shouldn't be necessary, at least legislatively.mamabearCali wrote:We have "compromised" again and again and again...and all we seem to do is lose ground when we are willing to "compromise." This particular administration's view of compromise is "be reasonable, do it my way". Look at everything else that has been "compromise"....the healthcare bill, the tax deals of late, the fiscal cliff, sequestration, again and again and again when we are willing to compromise they get everything and we get nada. NO MAS! BASTA! (No more, Enough) This admin has a take no prisoner attitude...fine so do I. Here I stand and not one inch farther will I go.
There is often a claim that we are losing ground. Over the last 15-20 years we have gained ground, not lost ground. We have gained ground only because we have allowed compromise. Texas gun laws are a wonderful example of this forward progress built on compromise. I do agree that we shouldn't have to give up any of our rights. But to condemn compromise is to condemn progress of our side.
