And I believe if our GoP leaders espoused precisely those principles instead of trying to sound more like the competition, we'd see that MOST Americans agree--including those fringey Conservatives the GoP leaders seem to detest more than the Dems they try to mimic.<br />Oh, and until such time as the GoP leaders "get" that distinction, they'll not see another penny from me.

Not as much as you or I would sometimes like, but we can never forget that a large portion of the American public does not agree with the things that I have written here. They must be contended with, and that often means finding common ground and compromise.<br />52 mins · Like · 1<br /><br />Greg Dail Yes I am aware of that, but compromise becomes self defeating if taken too far. <br />I'm not big into compromising my core principles, win or lose.<br />49 mins · Like · 1<br /><br />Bryan McGrath But the devil is in the details, right? I mean, it is a core principle to me that we control our border. If getting to that means we find a way to grant some kind of legal status to those here already illegally--productive people who are helping make our economy grow--then I am all for that. But I am called an "amnesty" Republican. No--my interest is getting to sovereignty and control of our border.<br />45 mins · Like · 2<br /><br />Matthew America Hipple ^Bingo. If everything is a priority, nothing is a priority.<br />31 mins · Like<br /><br />Greg Dail CW we've had this fight for 35 years. Ain't no Democrat going to control the border until such time as there is an invincible Democratic majority in every state. The Republicans have offered a "compromise" since forever; LOCK DOWN THE BORDER THEN WE'LL DO IMMIGRATION REFORM. The Democrats have rejected this at every turn because they like the present situation. Plus if you think giving in will change anything I would refer you to Reagan's compromise. That's it pal, no border security until WE do border security, and guys like Bush wouldn't do border security. <br />I now refer you to my original point.<br />5 mins · Like"The Hammer"https://www.blogger.com/profile/16342812251947807673noreply@blogger.com
