You have probably heard the term “bleeding heart liberals.” It is one of the Republicans’ favorite attacks. Remember that Republicans are also the most vocal defenders of Christianity.
I remember a 60 Minutes interview of Studs Terkel back in the 1970s. Studs Terkel was a politically liberal activist who died in 2008 at the age of 96. He is someone the conservatives have long loved to hate. He said something to the effect that he did not mind being called a bleeding heart; this phrase refers to the bleeding heart of Jesus Christ, of which he was not ashamed.
I wonder what the Christian Republicans would have to say about that.
