Bob Schieffer's Center

On last Sunday’s (June 17) “Face the Nation,” Bob Schieffer said that we might need to have a third party to “get to the center.” On this Sunday’s (June 24) “Face the Nation,” he mentioned “the center” again. News flash, Bob. There is no center. Take any issue and tell me where “the center” is. There are mixtures of positions on issues, but no “center.” I suspect that what he meant was a “compromise”: you give up something and I give up something. No one is fully satisfied, but we “move on." Well, my position is that there are some issues about which there can be no compromise. Are there any for you?
