It`s the empathy, stupid!
One thing`s for certain....Republicans resent empathy and rightfully so. Forget that walk-a-mile-in-my-mocassins stuff. Empathy is for sissies and Socialist Communist Liberals, folks so lax they don`t even bother to ascertain church affiliation before handing out cans of soup at the local food pantry. I mean, if Liberals continue to to hum this "We are the world" foolishness, illegals will be having babies just so they can come here and eat our food!

And what`s all this talk about the Quran? Did our Founding Fathers ever once mention Islam? No,they didn`t and they didn`t mention Civil Unions either. Or carpenter`s unions for that matter. Liberals are famous for taking the P-U-R-E out of Puritans. Just try to find one with a flag pin....or a suit.

Liberals are still whining about torture and White Phosphorus. Personally, I`m glad we flattened Fallujah. Those people flew their planes into our Twin Towers on September 11th and if it wasn`t for President George W. Bush`s famous megaphone at Ground Zero, they probably would have bombed Cleveland by now....or maybe some beautiful golf course in Boca Raton because they`re jealous of our money.

You won`t see me crying any big crocodile tears over someone else`s alleged "hardship." I made sure I have health insurance and when I inherited that money from my grandfather, I didn`t waste it on poster board for a NO WAR sign or throw a bunch of it in a jar for some house fire victim I don`t even know. Toughen up, America. Allow ONLY ONE language and ONLY ONE religion in your house, including your U.S.A. house. Otherwise, you`re apt to see a long line of Kenyans sleeping in Lincoln`s bedroom and watermelon at every single county fair. Our way of life, the True American Way, is under assault. Call your Congressman today and tell him....NO HEALTH CARE FOR ME OR MY FAMILY!

1. Funny how the GOP can think that the Founding Fathers didn't deal with Islam, ...
when President John Adams (not just a Founding Father but a daddy of a later president) wrote that the U.S. was not a Christian nation in relationship to a treaty with a Muslim nation.

2. Empathy, not Intelligence, is the true measure of Humanity
A Computer can be intelligent.
But without empathy, it can never be Human.

Tin Men need Hearts.
