Want to take a guess at who was president when the federal government last actually shrank in size?

Coolidge?

BTW, you got a hat tip in post #1 for the Perry quotes! Good stuff! :)

DING! DING! DING! We have a winner here!

Exactly right! The much maligned Calvin Coolidge actually REDUCED the size of the federal government and no one has come close to doing so since!

Thanks for the hat tip!
