I have no sympathy for Susan Smith and don't find her circumstances extenuating.

To this you replied:

You are a liberal!

That doesn't follow. Not that I'm offended. I realize you're just trying to demonize me for disagreeing with you.

You are wrong in charging that I have no compassion and ridicule it in others. On the contrary, I consider it a virtue. I admit I have little compassion for murderers though. You can have compassion for murderers and that's why I consider you a liberal. IMO if you find anyone with compassion for convicted murderers, you've found a true liberal. About the only murderer I can think of that I've felt compassion for was Karla Faye Tucker.

I've only known a few liberals, most of them women and most of them quite good people with strong senses of compassion for others. I've known a lot of conservatives and at least some of them are also compassionate though many are strangers to the concept.

Liberals only have compassion when it suits them, while humans have it because they are humans.

Seems you make a distinction between liberals and humans. Wonder if that means you don't consider abortion of liberal's murder - them not being human, after all. (In case you can't tell, I'm kidding here though I suspect you aren't.)
