Abraham Lincoln, had to infringe on the Bill of Rights to win the US Civil War. Reagan had to cut all sorts of deals with Democrats in order to advance his agenda.

Real world problems, as opposed to the fantasy bubble world purists live in, are not black and white.

We all ready have a ideologically rigid arrogantly inflexible President in 0. I have no desire to replace him with a different one just with the same mindset just because he happens to mouth the correct slogans and talking points on the campaign trail

I propose a new entry into the FR Lexicon. It is called “SIC” for Single Issue Conservative. A single issue Conservative is someone who only cares about his or her personal agenda item.

I assume you mean the solutions are not black and white? It seems to me that any problem must be presented in clear black and white terms.

I ask because I am interested in discussing this further.

Seems like too many deals have been cut with Democrats in recent years and that’s what Conservatives here at FR have
been whining about for years.

Re: Lincoln and habeas corpus. Are we having a civil war. I wasn’t aware of that.
