With all of the negative publicity on both sides, perhaps a reasonable compromise can be reached. And then that used as a model for Congress!
Do you think?

Problem is, the liberals and democrats consider compromise to be where everyone else gives up what they want and does what the liberals and democrats tell them to.

The CEO tripled his salary and gave executives raises of up to 80% and then asks for the workers to take ANOTHER cut in pay and benefits.

Zoid, that quote was from the tea party senate wanna-be Mourdock, who was trounced by sensible Missourians. The president has shown a lot of willingness to compromise, but so far he’s gotten back “well, we’ll compromise by sticking to the Romney plan of vague unspecified tax loophole closing, but no further revenues.” Romney lost the election. The news hasn’t yet been received by the slow GOP brains.

Just a thought…I wonder how many people who have not had a Twinkie in years have gone to the store to get a box, or a case when they found out that they might be disappearing from the shelves?
Just curious, since I went Grocery shopping yesterday and there were NONE on the shelves at the Kroger or the Wally World…

Reasonable? Compromise? You must think we live in a bunch of United States or something! No, sir, this is the Nation of US and THEM, and THEY must be destroyed at all costs!
