This catch phrase was used to get certain politicians elected but have we really seen compassionate conservatism as promised? Should that label be applied to Conserative Republicians? Or is it more suitable when applied to Moderate Democrates?

Compassionate conservatism is a political philosophy that stresses using traditionally Conservative techniques and concepts in order to improve the general welfare of society.

I live in a state that always has gone republican. However I have come to see that those two words do not go together. It is a true oxymoron.
This label was used by President Bush while trying to be elected. I doubt that compassionate can truly be used but anyone in Washington. Certainly not by our current President.

Conservatism = fiscal conservatism. Compassion = empathy. Compassionate Conservatism = Empathy without Tax.

I laughed. It's like claiming that there are two kinds of conservatives--the nice kinds and the assholes. Well, we all know that there's really only one kind. The kind that inhumane.
