A New York Times/CBS poll rates citizen disapproval of Congress at 82 percent, due to partisan politics and failure to compromise.

I’m fine with that. While leadership consists of many immoral, liberal Democrats and several corrupt or wimpy Republicans, I do applaud the unwillingness of new Republicans to compromise with the liberal/progressive element.

I don’t want to compromise with people who think it’s fine to kill unborn children; with people who believe in stealing money from my rich friends and giving to the undeserving; with those who think same-sex marriage is moral.

I don’t wish to cooperate with a racist president who has a chip on his shoulder against Western civilization; who has built his life on the backs of taxpayers; who was elected only because of his race and giving a good speech at the 2007 Democratic Convention; who is loose with my money.

I wouldn’t compromise with senators and representatives who are consistently dishonest; who have little understanding of world and national history. I’d never compromise with a person such as John Kerry, who wants the media to censor the speech of true conservatism.

I won’t compromise with a president and his minions who call the tea party terrorists, while refusing to put the same label on the real terrorists from the Middle East.

I think partisan politics is great, especially when one side is nearly right and the other totally wrong. However, it makes little difference if the nation itself is reprobate, as is the U.S.
