Although the big word on the left is 'compassion,' the big agenda on the left is dependency.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Even though I'm a leftist. I think the left eats its own.
Compassion alone stands apart from the continuous traffic between good and evil proceeding within us.
The Right everywhere in the world gains more by forming a security agenda while the Left gains from a social agenda.
The Left likes to think of itself as the bulwark of progressive liberal individualism, and yet it seeks to progressively coerce others to fund every social program under the sun via majority rule.
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.
Compassion is a two way street.
Nothing for the Left, nothing the government does is ever about its superficial reason; it's only and always about expanding government power and control over you.
I think that a good Left is a party that always thinks about the future and doesn't care much about our past sins.
The left sees nothing but bigotry and superstition in the popular defense of the family or in popular attitudes regarding abortion, crime, busing, and the school curriculum.
One thing everyone seems to agree on is that Republicans face a perceived compassion deficit.
