Is political compromise different than any other?

Political compromise is the settlement of differences reached by mutual concessions and blending qualities of two different things.

Again, I'm forced to use my business experience. In any deal I've ever negotiated I've expected to compromise, but there were boundaries...in this case civil law, and there was the minimum I would accept.

It seems to me that CFR breached the boundaries (the Constitution), but must have given W the minimum he would accept. While I can't imagine what this was, I'll agree to it.

The idea of negotiating myself into a position that favors the other side in return for future concessions is something I've never done. Agreeing to something that is against the law is also something I couldn't do.

No difference. But this is a political website and we are discussing politics, after all. Hence the term, political compromise.

President Bush said he thought parts of CFR, were constitutionally questionable.

Have no fear, the USSC will overturn the issue ad bans, which are a direct infringement of our second amendment right to freedom of speech.
