In my opinion a true leader try's to find and stick to the common ground while avoiding unnecessary fights, as to maximize his/her strength in the necessary fights.

I respect your required statements, and I agree its a fair trade off, I was simply pointing out my opinion with regard to that trade off being perhaps… imprudent given the scope of the goals.(necessary fight)
I was in ignorance of your knowledge of such a trade off.

I get so tired of this sort of liberal tripe. They may but have begun bad but they have wound up bad.
