That depends on where your standing when you look. From where they both started, they've both compromised a good bit, just not on "some" key values.

I could be wrong, but I don't think the Reps or Dems ever really said what the goal was (other than reps to blackball Obama every chance they get). Obama, I think, said he wanted 4 trillion cut + revenue increases (off set the war machine stopping later on) but neither side is going to give that up and he wants a budget past 2012.

Hehe, that's because "they" aren't giving up anything, "we" are....
