This makes no sense whatsoever."Why has "COMPROMISE" become a dirty word to Republican Conservatives"
Because they're extremists and ideologues who adhere blindly to failed conservative dogma.
Wrong. It's because you and your fellow failed liberal socialist ideologues misuse the word itself.
It does. Your ongoing inability to understand such matters speaks far more to your weak intellect and piss poor educational accomplishments.
But I'm here to help. Let's start things off very slowly for your greatest chance of ever catching on:
"Compromise" is a word. Words have meaning. The meaning of the word is also, often, somewhat dependent on the context in which it is used.
You liberals tend to ignorantly (although sometimes with full knowledge and conscious choice) misuse words. You do so for different reasons. Sometimes its because you really don't know that words have precise meanings (as opposed to the gibberish spin you put on them). Other times you simply CHOOSE to ignore the context in which the words may be used.
I realize you are having huge difficulty with this. Get a kindly adult to help you out.
Republicans are cool with compromise — just not with President Obama
Pew, though, has also shown increase in support for compromise. While Americans preferred purity 54-40 percent in its poll in January 2011, compromise took the lead after the 2012 election, 50-44.
Similarly, this new NBC/WSJ poll even shows a plurality of Republicans now favor compromise, 49-45. Whoa, if true.
But before you good-government types get all high on the concept of compromise in the months and years ahead, I present to you: A wet blanket.
The one key word missing from NBC/WSJ's and Pew's previous polls? "Obama." And when you throw him into the mix, all bets are off.
Republicans and Republican-leaning voters prefer their leaders to "stand up" to Obama rather than compromise by a striking 66-32 percent. That's a far cry from NBC/WSJ's 49-45 percent pro-compromise split. And we would wager that it's all about invoking O-word, along with the idea of "standing up" to him.
(For what it's worth, the same question was asked of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters about their party working with GOP leaders. Democrats preferred working together 52-43 percent. So again, the anti-compromise thing is largely a GOP phenomenon.)
So, yes, the American people generally like the idea of compromise, and even Republicans could be on board with it. But the moment that compromise becomes "with Barack Obama," any notion of a kumbaya moment goes out the window.
Republicans are cool with compromise — just not with President Obama
When "compromise" with that dickless idiot invariably turns out to be worth less than the paper on which an agreement is printed, then it does become rather pointless to negotiate with him or entertain any more 'compromise." He takes and takes, but he doesn't give.
What other fucking President refers to his opposing political party as "the enemy?"
He works on a treaty. He sees that it will never get ratified. He then deliberately mis-labels it as anything other than a "treaty." The worthless compromise driven feckless GOP in the Senate then capitulate to that Constitutional nonsense. Suddenly, it becomes another mere bill or Act. Now instead of 2/3rds of the Senate being needed to ratify the treaty, a simple majority will get it approved.
Failing all of that, of course, the idiot in chief (a former law lecturer on the Constitution of all things) even floats the notion that he can dispense with Congress all together by the simple expedient of some authority to issue Executive Orders.
There is no compromise possible with an inherently unprincipled piece of shit like Obumbler.
And since what he has consistently sought is FAR from being in our national interest, there is damn little reason to even SEEK compromise.
