CNN Analyst Avlon: CPAC's 'Saving Freedom' Theme 'A Little Extreme'
Newsbusters ^ | February 19th | Matthew Balan

AVLON: Well, the theme of this conference, below the podium and in the seminar rooms, is 'saving freedom,' and that's certainly how the participants view this. They believe themselves to be saving freedom, fighting against socialism...while they can build a bridge to independents on the issue of fiscal conservatism...if you try to extend that and then say it's a fight against socialism, which is the general consensus right now, that seems like a bridge too far. This is a group of people, when they say 'saving freedom,' they're confusing, at heart, losing an election with living under tyranny. That's a message that strikes a lot of independents as a little extreme.

Saving freedom a little extreme? Sadly not the case. Our basic freedom is under assault by our own government like never before. obama/Reid/Pelosi are the biggest threats to each and every one of us.

I believe the writer of this article suffers from a debilating mental condition called “liberlism”.
