Exactly.

Anonymous Liberal...
The GOP has reached a point where no one in the party is even capable of discussing fiscal issues in a way that is remotely serious or reality-based.
Which brings to mind my continuing annoyance with Democrats who feed the beast with rhetoric like "fiscal conservative." There's nothing inherently illiberal about responsible stewardship of the public purse. Conflating conservatism with responsibility has done major damage to our Party and to the underlying political philosophy of our country. It's one of the primary reasons, I think, that so many people who believe in constitutional governance, a social safety net, social equality and a sound national defense - all fundamentals of contemporary liberalism - define themselves as 'conservatives.'

So all y'all Ds who play the 'social liberal, fiscal conservative' card? Knock it off. You're hurting the country.
