NO fan of Dana Rohrabacher am I. But on this one, he's right.

For someone invokign Reagan's name, however, he seems to have forgotten the 11th Commandment.

That's a poor excuse for Bush and the GOP raising social spending to levels never seen before. And the so-called 11th commandment doesn't mean fiscal conservatives can't criticize elected Republicans like PresBush.

Let's start with the phrase, 11th commandment. That was a slogan Reagan didn't create.

Reagan wrote:
"The personal attacks against me during the primary finally became so heavy that the state Republican chairman, Gaylord Parkinson, postulated what he called the Eleventh Commandment: Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican. It's a rule I followed during that campaign and have ever since.

This was a rule followed by Reagan. I'm not Ronald Reagan and never professed to being Reagan incarnate either. What about Bush43`s liberal spending habits. You support them?

The 11th Commandmant was nullified when the Republicans abandoned the concept of conservatism and smaller government. Tough stuff, many Republicans are sacks of sh*t when it comes to smaller government and less spending. They govern by polls just like Democrats do.

Thank you for pointing that out, I hope more people notice. He has no shame either. I'm suspicious, that's a trait our political enemies have in abundance.
