Brent Bozell Thinks Ryan's Budget Deal Will Lead To A Conservative Revolt In The GOP
TOM KLUDT – DECEMBER 12, 2013, 6:41 AM EST
It wasn't long ago that L. Brent Bozell III was fawning over House Budget Committee Chair Paul Ryan (R-WI) and defending the Wisconsin Republican against attacks from "liberal politicians and journalists." Now, in the wake of a bipartisan budget deal that would set spending levels for the next two years, the right-wing firebrand has turned on Ryan.
Bozell blasted the budget hammered out earlier this week by Ryan and Senate Budget Committee Chair Patty Murray (D-WA), predicting that the deal will lead to a conservative revolt in the GOP.
“The conservative base of the Republican Party was already walking away from the establishment G.O.P.,” Bozell, chairman of the conservative group ForAmerica, told the New York Times. “That will now turn into a stampede away from a party that has lost its principles and bearings.”
Once a cult hero among tea partiers obsessed with slashing government spending, Ryan now finds himself staring down something of a conservative rebellion. Heritage Action, the infulential political arm of the Heritage Foundation, announced its opposition to the Ryan-Murray budget, while a slew of tea party candidates have also come out against the deal.

left for this to continue indefinitely. I'll give them until 2020 just to be charitable. The reason we haven't gotten rid of them so far is that bagger conservatism is in its death throes, so they're rearing up as ferociously as they can, aided and abetted by cretins like the Koch boys and their cronies in the M$M. It suits their agenda to pit regular folks like us against each other--that way they think we won't notice that they have robbed us blind. They are despicable. It will end, and I think sooner rather than later. At least I hope so! I HOPE younger folks won't fossilize & turn into baggers as they age. I didn't.
BTW, welcome to DU!
