My point is that nobody acknowledged common ground with me. Similar behavior occurs on the Right.

Which is not a good way to win elections, but it’s a great way to wreck a country.

And my point above is that your characterization of Ryan is incorrect, the man is not “willing to confront” our fiscal problems. His budget ignored them in every way possible, taking a purely partisan approach, and wouldn’t even begin to balance the budget for 30 years. Acting as though his decision to screw over the poor shows anything but an adherence to party orthodoxy is not something I can meet halfway.
