29. Mighty good question.
Tue Aug 2, 2016, 05:32 PM
Aug 2016

Can be applied to a whole bunch of different situations happening now.

My personal new favorite: Mr. Khan, in his anguish over his son, has said in interviews several times by now - that Donald Trump has no empathy. And Khan specifically stated that a President NEEDS that empathy, that compassion, to be a good leader.

Anybody remember how dick "the war criminal" cheney sneered openly and publicly at the idea of empathy? Sneered, jeered, and scoffed. Thought it was stupid and useless and shameful and a sure sign of weakness. Curled his lip even harder than usual when he even spoke the word. And everybody played right along, and raised no objections. The BASTARD.

I think Mr. Khan is RIGHT.
