What did Bob Beckel Admit?

This hasn’t been reported in the MSM or even other conservative sources. On the January 18, 2012 The Five on Fox News, Beckel said the following:

“We liberals made a terrible mistake going back 30 years ago. We made a dependent society because we thought we were doing the right thing. We had things like public housing and we had welfare payments and all that bred dependency, and it was our responsibility, we did it for the right reasons, we need to change that. But the way you change it is not to say that it’s an opportunity society alone that’s gonna do it. It’s gonna require some government intervention. That’s our point.”

So, Beckel admits that the liberals were wrong with the “Great Society” programs from thirty years ago. However, he also spouts the liberal mantra: don’t judge me on the results of my policies, only on my good intentions. Well, the road to hell is littered with the good intention of liberals. It is about time the results of their policies are measured and examined. Hold them accountable for results and watch the change.
