I think it's all well and good that we should be concerned with the suffering in the world. And we should do something about it...after we do something about the suffering, and general safety here. Not that conservatives care much about the poor and middle class...who are paying the highest percentage of their income of any of us, and who are providing all the cannon fodder for our rich man's wars.

Well said.
