Many of the nutjobs were firmly convinced that government gives you your rights.

It's more than a little ironic that Dems would attack that particular line in Ryan's speech, considering the politician who previously said "…the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God."

That would be President Kennedy, in his Inaugural Address in 1961.

JFK would not be welcome in today’s Democratic Party - not liberal enough.
