What a confusing and incoherrent article. Is the author suggesting that, as I suspect he is, the “problem” is a general refusal on both sides (Left & Right in this case) to compromise? Over the last forty years or more the Right has done nothing BUT compromise, while the Left has not and does not. Self-styled and self-appointed saviours (Leftists) have no need to compromise you see, they are heroic champions of everyone, or so they tell themselves, and heroes do not compromise. Every “compromise” by the Right takes us further and further into Socialist hell but the author would have us believe that any instance of the Right refusing to continue to do so is half of the problem. Utter nonsense.

I suspect this author suffers from political/media Stockholm syndrome and has developed an affinity for his captors. How else would one explain such incoherrence and fuzzy logic?
