Is everything negotiable? |
|
Can you name one thing that is not negotiable? What issue is there that we cannot compromise on?
Just curious.
Is there anything that we should not compromise on? Is there any place where we should stand our ground? Can you think of just one?
What is a Democrat? Please tell me. I am confused.

6. Not tax cuts or domestic spending cuts. |
|
You live in a Republican dogma world now. There is nothing you can do.

7. The common ground that vilifies the trodden-down is non-negotiable. |
|
Paraphrasing the Indigo Girls, in case you think me more clever than I am.

8. Use and definition of terms |
|
Instead of negotiation, use the word capitulation. Maybe neither word is correct when the agenda is corporate right wing from the get go.
What is a Democrat? There's very few real Democrats on the national level, and I don't think Obama is one of them. He's to the right of Clinton. He's definitely to the right of Nixon and even starting to look like he's to the right of Raygoon. After all Raygoon actually prosecuted the criminal bankers from the savings and loan scandals. Obama appointed them to positions of banking oversight in his admin.

9. Negotiate yes, compromise...not when it's about doing what's most proper. |
|
The challenge lies in a meeting of relevant minds as to how we define proper, later defined as 'political will'. As a proponent of the democratic principle I understand that means I support social and political equality.
