From the article:"A liberal cares about 'us.'"

Makes sense in a way... A liberal defines a "we" vs. "they" world and they care about "us" so long as you're a member of the "we" group.

Also from the article: "Liberals are the people who have brought you the 40-hour work week, health insurance and overtime pay," said Huntley resident Bill Wiederkehr."

If I recall correctly, employer provided health insurance began as a response to Democratic-imposed wage controls. Business owners (mostly Republican I would think) offered health insurance as additional compensation to get around those wage controls.
