For decades, Republicans have been blathering about how they'd implement limited government, lower taxes, balanced budgets, "fixed" Social Security (as if you can fix a Ponzi scheme) etc. etc., if only they had a chance.
Given the chance, the Republican Party's blather was revealed to be just another con-job by professional politicians.
We have two Big Stupid Government parties, and America deserves better.
Certainly not the idiot Libertarians who won't protect either the unborn or the national defense. Spare me. You're just a whiner. As long as I've been on this board I've never seen you offer ONE SINGLE positive suggestion or plan for anything.
Same old Rearend Reardon. Yata...Yata...Yata...Whine...Whine...Sniffle...Sniffle...Sob.
Stupid? I don't know. Maybe two Big EVIL Government parties instead. You're giving them too much credit IMO.
Baloney. It was not a con job. Many of the Republicans in Congress individually want those things but are unable to politically make it happen as a group. A person is smart but people are dumb and like sheep. The Republicans are politically inept cowards which is quite different than con artists.
