What's that one thing that was criticized for being nothing but a collection of compromises? I think it has something to do with America...

...oh yeah, the CONSTITUTION!
 
In my experience, most politicians regard the constitution as an inconvenience.

You have said in the past that they change it to their will when they can. So it is compromising to what they want ;)

Wrong. Senate rules created the filibuster, not the Constitution. The Constitution says, plain & simply, a majority vote for or against judges. A filibuster is a :bs: ploy. Senate rules can be changed, and regularly are.

Did I say anything about the filibuster being in the Constitution? I said the Constitution itself is a document full of compromises. That's how stuff gets done, not through ideological hard-headedness.
 
That is the creation of it. The Constitution itself is the set of rules in which the Dems have failed to follow. It offers no compromise. It limits our officials to what they may do.
