Very well stated. Thank You. Unlike numb minds that believe "compromise" is the way to achieve a more Constitutional Republic, I prefer to Stand on Principle. Many more "compromises" and we can label the U.S. "Gone" and replaced by the Party that Lies the best.
In the Words of Our Presidente' (father, son, no difference) -----
"Please don't ask me to do that which I've just said I'm not going to do, because you're burning up time. The meter is running through the sand on you, and I am now filibustering." George Bush Sr., in 1989
"The senator has got to understand if he's going to have he can't have it both ways. He can't take the high horse and then claim the low road." George W. Bush, in Feb. 2000"
And losers have no effect on policy or legislation.
