4. There will always be people who will ballance 40,000 lives against perfection and choose perfection

For some here at DU, any compromoise is too much. The only thing they have in common with Freepers is that they believe this is the wrong bill.

They have a legitimae gripe. It could have been better. Unfortuantley, with our particular system something better would not have passed.

Liberals and progressives don't have to agree on everything. They will get over the los and we will find things that we can agree with.
