I am surprised you know the word, compassion. From my vantage point in society I can't say as any republican has that quality arising from the heart. For gain or notoriety, yes.
So Ethics was never a problem before Reagan?
Who do you think should be punished that isnt?
As for your compassionate personal attacks, I have to ask, how much have given this year? I've likely done more for people in need today than you've done in a month. And I am not saying that to brag. I am saying it because it's probably true.
Giving away other peoples money isnt compassionate.
If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin
Imagine what good we can do if we all joined together, united as followers of Christ - M. Russell Ballard
