I would only note it's not really "tit for tat" — it's about adhering to the law and applying it equally. //

"I'm not talking about violence," she made clear. "I'm talking about tit for tat," she said.

I'd just be happy if the GOP just decides to fight like they're in an existential war for this country's soul and act accordingly.

That might mean something that resembles "tit for tat" but, more important than that is just playing to win rather than playing to let the Dems win.

Indeed. Sticking to our principles has gotten us here. Its certainly not going to get us out or guarantee a place at the back of the line at the camps.

Indeed. Sticking to our principles has gotten us here.

I'm pretty sure it's not principles we're sticking to that's gotten us here.I keep saying that there are two kinds, and definitions, of conservative, the ideological and the personality type.

We can't seem to grok that the personality type conservative sounds a lot like the ideological conservative but with the basic impetus of "Favoring traditional views and values; tending to oppose change" and, because of that, they are NOT the same and, in fact, behave like RINOs.

It's not principles that are 'getting us here', it is being confused about which 'conservative' we're working with and wondering why people that 'tend to oppose change', you know, refuse to change the status quo that the left is clever enough to create for them so that they will 'refuse to act' to correct the ideological errors of the left's positions.
