Its ironic...but I think that 'Christian compassion' is one of the talking points / emotional appeals that will be used to hold part of the Republican base together in this march towards the late Robert Bartley inspired open / borderless society."Compassion" didn't work for Mondale. Busing couldn't be credibly sold by limousine liberals who sent their kids to private or suburban schools. People aren't stupid. They figure out pretty quickly who is being asked to pick up the tab and who is freeloading. They wlll have no difficulty seeing through the kind of guilt trip bayourod tried to lay down.
Open borders can't be sold by people who can wall themselves away from poverty, violence, and chaos pouring into the lives of most Americans.

Excellent analogy between the limousine liberals who pushed busing for the people who could not afford private schools, and the RINO's who isolate themselves from the open borders they promote. The MS13 gang rape initiation never happens in their gated communities, the only effect they see is that the due's at the country club are lower due to all the illegals.

I am really afraid the whole party is going to be tarred and feathered with the brush of hypocrisy. There are none so blind as those who won't see. And its both parties, of course. The RATS are worse...but we're the ones enabling the liberal agenda...cause...for better or worse, we supposedly have the majority party.
Matthew 5:13. Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
