Today's (Brief) Political Rant

Yesterday, a group of Senators assembled what everyone is describing as a "compromise" regarding the filibustering of judicial nominees. I have no particular opinion about this compromise, or about what might have happened if they hadn't reached this compromise.

What amuses me is browsing websites of various political stripes. Some on both sides are angry, some are doing victory dances…and almost none of them seem to grasp the concept that in a "compromise," neither side gets everything it wants.
