Dana Bash on Cantor Loss: 'Sad' That Republicans Now Won't 'Compromise'
NewsBusters ^ | June 11, 2014 | P.J. Gladnick

Sniff! With the stunning Eric Cantor congressional primary loss yesterday, the Republicans are now less willing to "compromise" on such programs as immigration "reform" and other Democrat inspired legislation according to  Dana Bash of CNN who  thinks that's sad. So sad.

Bash dropped even  the slight pretense of non-bias this morning during a CNN New Day report on Cantor's historic loss. She declared it "sad" that the election result now makes it unlikely for  Republicans to act like Democrats. Break out the violins and play an appropriately mournful tune as Bash indulges her sadness:

We’ll compromise, we won’t sell out to the left-wing position. BIG difference.

It’s sad, so sad
It’s a sad, sad situation
And it’s getting more and more absurd
It’s sad, so sad
Why can’t we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

Lefties are always wringing their handkerchiefs because they lack critical thinking skills or the ethos that guides the rest of us.
They figure if they bus-in a bunch of young illegals (AKA future democRats) we’ll say `Ah, never mind’, because, you know, it’s for the children.

Mean what? That the Democrats will now have to?

Compromise has resulted in the HELL that “both” political parties have put us in.

Compromise has been defined as a partial surrender. The right has been surrendering ground so much that they are now to the left of center.

The media narrative follows the Democrat narrative. That the Republicans must do all the compromising. This is brainwashing pure and simple which is fairly easy with our publik skrool edumacation system turning out more dumbed down youths each year who know nothing about American civics and American history. Whose textbooks had five pages on Harriet Tubman and one paragraph on (evil slave holder) George Washington

Did Liberals compromise when they forced “O” into the nomination of his party and the HE in turn consistently fails (REFUSES) to compromise on basic and required procedures in the execution of his duties?

Imagine if things were to turn around enough that Democrats would have to compromise. They would choke on the progress.

I think they probably compromise every day. Obama’s true intention is to model the US after North Korea. The fact that he is temporarily accepting less than full blown totalitarian communism is a “compromise”.

She's wrong. It's the American people that aren't willing to compromise and they said so. Loudly.

A big thanks. Compromise is for losers and the Republicans and Americans have been losing for a long time.

Compromise to a dem/lib is agreeing with what THEY want.

John King compromized,.. and what did it get him ?
a divorce after the first son was born.
That's #2 Dana ,..
are you going for #3 compromise ?
Compromize to you means yielding to your desires.. and that is only the start of more yielding!
Look to your own personal life and see how that has worked out for ya !
