Heritage Foundation: Rep. Paul Ryan is “the leader of the future of the conservative movement.”
Heritage is familiar to anyone who listens to Laura Ingraham or Rush Limbaugh and they’re really into Rep. Paul Ryan (R) of Wisconsin. FOX News reports:
“The Heritage Foundation, a prominent conservative think tank in Washington, has anointed this rising GOP star “the leader of the future of the conservative movement.”
“When my kids are my age, the federal government will have to tax 40 cents out of every dollar just to pay for the federal government we have today at that time,” he said. “You add the Obama budget ambitions on top of it, it gets even worse. You will destroy this country’s prosperity.”
“If you believe in freedom, liberty, self-determination, free enterprise, I don’t care if you’re a Muslim, Jewish, Agnostic, Christian, gay, straight, Latino, black, white, Irish, whatever. Join us.”
Ryan’s Libertarian leanings have been noted by the Republican Liberty Caucus which gave him an impressive score back in November of last year.
“Rep. Ryan has a lifetime ‘libertarian’ rating in the Liberty Index. While not earning 100%, he nonetheless displays a more-than-passing familiarity with libertarian ideas.”
Fiscal Conservative, Libertarian Republican…. What’s not to like?
Check out the video below where Ryan points out that Obama’s budget wouldn’t even pass muster with the European Union.
