On the other hand, maybe that was the only way to get the states together, and we shouldn’t fault them for accepting something that would be loathsome to rational people, if that compromise led to something better.

You mean like putting a Human Life Amendment on the back-burner and instead focusing on the more attainable goals like getting Roe v. Wade reversed?

Many folks treat "compromise" as a dirty word, especially if it's on their "near and dear" topic. But getting some of what you want is usually better than holding out for everything, and getting nothing.

You will NEVER catch me saying compromise is a dirty word. But haven’t you ever faulted me for “compromising” by my support with Romney? If not, you’d be almost the only fred supporter who hasn’t.

BTW, just to be clear, not pushing HLA because it won’t pass is a rational compromise. Publicly opposing it because you think violating the rights of pre-born children is a “states rights” issue is not, it’s agreeing with the enemy.

So I don’t think Fred is compromising there, he is wrong.

However, I WILL compromise and vote FOR Fred, while faulting him for his WRONG position, if it comes to that.
