Jonah has a good point, but John Hawkins makes a good point that we don't trust Republicans to have our backs when they compromise. If Republicans had signed on to Boehner's "Plan B" because they felt it was a compromise that would be a strategic retreat to advance the ultimate agenda, we might have supported them.

But we (rightly, I think) believe they are just looking for anything that will keep them in power. Minority power is OK as long as they hold office. So we don't trust them to have the right goal, and we don't accept their compromise.

I'll grow up, Jonah, when I'm certain I'm playing with adults.
