Temper termper. Read your own tagline. Then while you are condescending down to my lowly level, show me where I said what you accuse me of saying. No, I went out of my way to specifically say when it was appropriate to compromise and when it was not appropriate. You are the one who got mad at some statement I didn’t even make. Your tagline says politics are about compromise. So I was addressing the issue of compromise, when it is good and when it is not good. Compromise is not in and of itself good. Otherwise traitors are good.

Temper termper.

Okay...I'll play, "No soup for you!!"

McCain is pro-abortion. And the “Big Tent”, which in practice means “A Big Tent on Social Issues Only”, is idiotic.

[Neidermeyer]

McCain said. ``The party of Abraham Lincoln is the party of inclusion.’’
*****************************************************
You’re right with your “big tent” comment... I’m just wondering if he thinks that the party of Abraham Lincoln was inclusive on their issue of the day, slavery? I’m sure with McCain we would have a “solution” like the Missouri compromise...
