Orwellian inversion of the century: Republicans' use of the word "compromise" [View all]

[ProgressiveEconomist]

The dictionary defines "compromise" as

"a way of reaching agreement in which each person or group gives up something that was wanted in order to end an argument or dispute."
( http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/compromise )

It's quite clear what the Republicans want Democrats to give up. But what are Republicans offering to give up?

Shutting down the government? Sending the world into a deep recession by destroying the full faith and credit of US Treasury obligations?

How many times did you hear Republicans use the word "compromise" yesterday?

How many times have you heard Democrats make the point I'm trying to make in this post?

WHAT'S YOUR OPINION?
