Mercy as a Calling 


The cause of immigration reform hit a huge speed bump in recent weeks, with the 
arrival at the border of thousands upon thousands of children from war-torn 
Central America. 

War-torn? Yes. Gangs ( micro-governments in the olden style) fed by drug money 
have turned the Latin American states to our south into war zones, alas not too 
dissimilar to the gang warfare that beset some of our great American cities. 

Only worse. 

No wonder the people in those countries are scared, and desperate. "Coyotes" 
are taking advantage of U.S. politicians' inability to secure the border, or 
even cook up a coherent immigration policy, and charge large amounts of money 
to transport children to "safety" in the U.S.

Where they are gathered and detained. 

In the midst of all the partisan bickering (a legitimate clash of ideologies, 
really) stands one hero: Glenn Beck.  While President Obama avoids the border 
crisis

  as if avoidance solves problems, radio/TV/Internet sensation Beck is taking 
his trucks and buses and volunteers directly to the area Obama avoids, the 
detention centers and surrounding cities and churches. 

He's taking food, clothing, and comforts for the children. 

Last night on The O'Reilly Factor he explained  that governments are instituted 
to provide justice. He laments the lack of justice on  immigration coming from 
Washington. But the business of the people, of caring Americans, is not 
primarily justice. 

It's mercy, Beck says. He's raised millions

 , and he's personally taking aid to where it's needed. 

Heroic. And very neighborly. 

This is Common Sense. I'm Paul Jacob.

Today


  <http://thisiscommonsense.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/carter-malaise.jpg> 
On July 15, 1976, Jimmy Carter accepted the nomination of the Democratic Party 
to run for the presidency. Three years later, as president, he gave his 
infamous "malaise" speech, in which he focused on energy but did not mention 
the one thing that actually helped turn the '70s' energy crisis around: the 
phased deregulation of oil prices that had started three months earlier, under 
his own directive. Instead of touting this deregulatory effort, Carter did the 
usual political thing and promised a number of new government programs, spoke 
exensively on a "crisis of confidence" meme, and vaguely talked of a spiritual 
crisis.
