Many conservatives experience President Obama's budget as a radical lurch to the left. Obviously, they conclude, President Obama is a radical lefty.
Unfortunately it's worse than that. President Obama is not leading from the left of his party. He is leading from the center.
Scratch a liberal and you will find someone who believes in universal health care run by the government. But President Obama's budget doesn't do that, not yet. It just sets a clear course towards that long-term liberal goal.
Scratch a liberal and you will find someone who believes in universal education from "early-childhood education" to graduate school. She will nod approvingly when her European guest relates how she got a government stipend while doing post-doc work at a university in the United States. President Obama's budget doesn't do all that. Not yet.
And we all know that liberals are getting ready to believe that global-warming skeptics are ethically close to being Holocaust deniers.

“But let us hope for better things. Let us hope that the American people will revolt against the further expansion of the liberal freeloader culture.
But our fellow Americans won’t have a chance without a broad conservative movement willing to risk life, fortune, and sacred honor in the cause to persuade them with the truth.”
Insurrection, anyone? Anyone?
Great post!
Glad you liked it!
It's the freeloader mentality that permeates the entire liberal culture. That's all they are folks and all they ever will be!
