"He bemoaned the fact that there was no place for pragmatic moderates to go," Ceisler said. "In the end, he got fed up with it all."

It is good news that there is no place for the 'pragmatic moderates' to go. We are better off with a highly polarized Congress that is paralyzed by gridlock, unable to pass anything serious, than we would be with a Congress full of "moderates" who are slowly legislating the road to Socialism. Which is what we had before.

These so-alled "moderates" are always compromising so as to pass "solutions to the nation's problems," all of which somehow involve enlarging government and raising taxes. We really can't afford any more government solutions to our problems. It's not like government is the only source of "solutions." Not by a long shot. It's time to let innovation and adaptive change fashion solutions, which are the only kind that ever work anyway. The government-run "solutions" always fritter away the money and make things worse.

Screw the "moderates," their compromises, and their "pragmatic solutions." They are the reason that government has gotten as big as it is. We need no more of them.

You are right, and the American people in their zest for “moderation” are wrong.
