McConnell said the below yesterday at 2:20 p.m. EST January 12, 2015
As I traveled throughout Kentucky last year, the message from voters was clear: They want a government that works again. And they want it to focus on more jobs, more opportunity, and more flexibility for a middle class that feels squeezed.
I know it won't be easy for him. The president's supporters are pressing for militancy, not compromise.
McConnell Ready to work with Obama
WHY oh WHY do especially the GOP believe Americans WANT compromise?
Americans want politicians do do what is principled NOT compromise!
We want politicians to vote on legislation that follows these fundamental principles:
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union,
--establish Justice,
--insure domestic Tranquility,
--provide for the common defence,
-- promote the general Welfare, and
--secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity,
do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Transcript of the Constitution of the United States - Official Text
If every piece of legislation was passed not because of "compromise" but because the legislation met the
above principles..i.e. for example:
Does the Keystone pipeline promote the general welfare?
DAMN right when the alternative is spilling 1 million barrels on the open ocean in a tanker going one mile versus only 700 barrels traveling one mile in a pipeline! DAMN straight that promotes the general welfare!
Does cutting down the massive growth of government regulations i.e.
promote the General welfare?
Take a look at what was added to our cost of living due to government regulations!
Is this the principle politicians should compromise on? "promote the General welfare?"
