"Many conservatives are reacting strongly to a recent speech given by President Obama in which he seems to denigrate the entrepreneurial spirit of American enterprise. “If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own,” said the president at a campaign event last week in Virginia.”You didn’t get there on your own,” he reiterated. “If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help.

If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”"
