Have you ever seen him go after McLame? I haven’t. I have only heard him say what he said at CPAC. The Repulicans are just as bad as the Democrats. In truth, the conservative Republicans are not as bad as the Democrats. The Rinos are but he smears the whole party - like he is a libertarian.

Here are the statistics on the Presidents and their growth of government adjusted for inflation. Glenn Beck was correct. The Republicans ARE addicted to spending.

Johnson: 4.1 percent
Nixon/Ford: 5 percent
Carter: 1.6 percent
Reagan: 1.4 percent
Bush I: 3.8 percent
Clinton: 2.1 percent
Bush II: 4.8 percent

I added the numbers (of the growth of government adjusted for inflation by President) and then averaged them. This is what I got:

Democrats:
4.1 Johnson
1.6 Carter
2.1 Clinton
7.8 Total
2.6 Average Democrats

Republicans:
5.0 Nixon/Ford
1.4 Reagan
3.8 Bush
4.8 Bush
15.0 Total
3.75 Average Republicans

The Republican Administrations HAVE been spending addicts!
