But even that comparison is too generous for our nation's first unelected president. What is a conservative, anyway? Wouldn't the world be a saner place if words were defined? We offer the following short definitions of "conservative" and "liberal." Conservative: One who wants to manage his own life. Liberal : One who wants to manage the lives of others. Perhaps the single most indicative measure of a politician's desire to manage the livs of others is his record on spending. No matter how anyone tries to cover it up, government programs, especially the social welfare type, are a double-barreleattack on the individual's right (and duty) to manage his own affairs.

It was in 1962 that our government first spent over 100 billion dollars in a single year. That was 174 years after the first federal budget.
