Digby Has a great post up about the conservative need to turn everything into a judgement on peoples character. . Most people realize conservatism makes things harder for the low-income people, what they don’t seem to understand is that for conservatives that’s part of, if not the only goal, is to punish people for being poor, or less fortunate. Once people start to understand that “compassionate” conservatism becomes much less compassionate.
