What are the real details of the executive order?
There have been other posts that said compassion means to do nothing for these people like give them the legal opportunity to work but that they knew they would live in a shadow society and be paid substandard wages to do jobs that Americans will not do. Is this the compassion our churches teach us? Is this the compassion we have taught our children and they pass onto their children?

Let's see who captured my compassion this past week. It is a toss up between the homeless Vietnam Vet who was covered head to toe with bedbug bites from the horrific shelter he is living in. The other was an 84 year old Vet who has a bedsore the size of an orange caused by lack of the ability of his elderly wife who is his only caretaker to properly bath and turn him, and he is not eligible to additional homecare because of lack of program funding.
Sorry, but my compassion quotient is already exhausted from these two most deserving individuals and the countless other Vets who risked their lives for our freedom that continue to experience hunger, homelessness, and lack of necessary healthcare.
