We cannot win because we are not united, like the left. We are not willing to take partial victories or compromise our principles.

Well, where has purity gotten us?

“Well, where has purity gotten us?”

It seems to me the left has held hard to its convictions over the past few years.

Government controlled health care - win
Gay marriage - win
Regulation of carbon emissions - win
Increase in marginal tax rates - win
Muslim infiltration of the US government - win
Immigration - win. Even with the courts holding up full amnesty, the borders are essentially open and hundreds of thousands of refugees are streaming in.
Medicaid expansion - win
Student loan program takeover by the federal government - win
Regulation of financial industry (Dodd Frank) - win
Gays in the military - win
Women in combat - win
Racial unrest - win
Government control of the internet - win
Unconstrained government surveillance of citizens - win
High deficit spending - win
Record spending/dependency on welfare programs - win
Control of the education system - win
Politicization of the IRS and the Justice Department - win
Radical appointments to the Supreme Court - win
Radical appointments to the cabinet and the creation of unaccountable “czars” to oversee the bureaucracy - win

I see no compromise from the left on gun control, they keep hammering away. I see no compromise from the left on their relentless crusade against the Christian religion.

The left doesn’t compromise.
