A lot of what you get here on FR is the people who believe that they have to prove their conservative bona fides by staking out an absolutist position on their pet issue(s) and castigating as THE ENEMY everyone who is not in 100.00000% agreement.

It's the biggest problem FR has in my opinion.

We see this all the time. If conservatives are going to win the day and save this country we need to be willing to take small steps. The one issue I won't waver on is Pro-Life. I will not vote for any candidate that is not Pro-Life. However, if the candidate is for exceptions such as incest and rape I may not agree but I will support them because we can move one step closer to the goal. It's called being realistic and seeing the bigger goal. I often get accused of being a rino because of this type of thinking, but if you look at how much the purists have accomplished I think I'm in good company.
