'Compassionate' Conservatives
Columnist Julia Gorin suggests that Bill Clinton's heart problems are all part of a plot by the former president to get attention and avoid responsibility: "Isn't that just like Slick Willy - to attempt an early exit, and escape earthly justice for all the misdeeds that have yet to surface....Not only would the master escape artist evade history's reckoning, but - newly deceased - he'd make it poor taste to criticize him. Genius! History has yet to catch up with Slick Willy, and I prefer him to be alive when it does. So I join the rest of the country in praying for the former president's complete recovery - even if it puts a damper on his plans."

Rush Limbaugh: "I understand it was gonna be a triple bypass, but then Clinton figured out his sympathy rating would go up to 87 percent with a quadruple."

Michael Savage (On hearing that Clinton's heart surgery was successful): "Mr. Clinton will be with us for a while longer."

1. Unless they have change the definition of compassion...
We need to remind the repukes that they call themselves compassionate and then give examples of the type of conservative assholes they really are.
Republican = no compassion.

2. What a bunch of narcissistic monsters. They really fit the description in
the wonderful animation "Becoming Republican." Don't miss it, it's both hilarious and absolutely true, as this bunch demonstrates. Compassion is for libruls. Like one of the lines from the animation says, "As a Republican, you must love, worship and ignore Jesus." The animation is linked to in OP of this thread:

5. Now why does any group of people have to
tell you they're compassionate? (Clue: it's not because they're compassionate.)
