To hell with compromise.

[ScienceRocks]

Funny thing is Reid might just pass such a bill!

Whatever, bigreb and matthew, your personal feelings are irrelevant to national policy.

Here is what will be a shocker to you
You're irrelevant.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Says one of the examples of why we lost. Big surprise from bigreb.

 

[ScienceRocks]

The people of russia lose in 1917
The people of Cuba lose
The people of China lose to Mao


All quite the same

You keep giving your opinion with no supporting evidence. Here's my opinion with supporting evidence
Romney was a mirror image of obama. The left of the GOP selected him to run against obama you helped obama to win four more years.

the matthews and the bigrebs lose now, and America will be far better off

Cuba is better off?

 

[bigrebnc1775]

CAUGHT YOU
Jake starkey just admits he thinks things will be better because obama won.
This is the second time you have outed yourself. Last year you admitted you were not a republican and now you admit you support obama.

 

[JakeStarkey]

matthew cannot make comparable illustrations is the point.

Who ever that thinks that Jakestarkey isn't a democrat- I have a piece of ocean front property to sell them in Montana.

Democrats got 50.3% of the total vote in House elections. Republicans only held the House because they had so thoroughly gerrymandered it in the 2010 redistricting, and because the advantages of incumbency are heaviest in the House.

Think about that, before you declare how the House Republicans need to set off on an extremist crusade.

But gerrymandered districts didn't help democratics in the least...Nope, not one iota.

Considering they won a majority of the popular vote, and Republican's still hold the House, you must be right. Republican gerrymandered districts were detrimental to Democrats.

His point is actually right, though. Gerrymandering did at least help the Dems in IL. Joe Walsh likely would have been booted out anyway, but Bob Dold and Judy Biggert's districts were cut to be more Dem-friendly and they did lose.

Gerrymandering is the name of the game from way back before 1800. Watch what happens when Texas goes blue in 2020 or 2024 and the state is redistricted. The 90% white vote out of the central counties will wet their pants.

However, if Pubs reach out to women and hispanics, while ignoring the soc con values group, Texas may stay competitive with the Dems in the 20s and 30s.

All they need do is look at Arizona and Florida, where their gerrymandering was a big FAIL. They better hope that states like Wisconsin doesn't have a Democratic governor in 2010.

Aside from the fact that to the left, "compromise" means "do what we want", the last thing I want government to do is agree.

Every time I hear someone say "let's get together on both sides of the isle to work on the problems facing this country" I just want to punch them in the face.

Government is not the solution to any problem. Just get the government out of the fucking way! When politicians get together, government NEVER gets out of the way.

What would have happened if John Adams stood by his guns, and refused to allow those held in bondage, and didn't have the right to vote, be counted in congressional and electoral proportioning?

What would have happened if James Madison dug his feet in and refused to allow the "general welfare" clause or a standing army (he changed his mind on that position after Washington was burned)?

Did any of you dolts read the Federalist and Anti-Federalist Papers? We were a nation built on compromise. Today's wingnuts think it's now a bad word, and not sticking by your guns is a sign that you're emasculated. It just shows that you're fucking idiots.

You haven't read them because I don't see anything in your post showing that you know what it is you are talking about.

That's because you're too stupid to read. The difference between the Federalist and the Confederationists were miles apart on most issues. The point is they were willing to compromise, even on things they felt strongly about. You're an idiot and a whiny little baby.

Nothing you say supports the argument that you have read any of the founding documents. keep trying.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Federalists would have hung Confederates in a flash.

The Hartford Convention (1814) was about amending the Constitution.

Charleston (1860) was about breaking up the country.
