I do wish one of the candidates would point out that there's nothing compassionate about growing the federal government

That is an answer for a debate against a Dem.

In response to my: "I do wish one of the candidates would point out that there's nothing compassionate about growing the federal government"

That is an answer for a debate against a Dem.

Considering what's happened the last 7 years, I think it'd be quite appropriate in a Republican debate. The Democrats have no corner on growing government these days, unfortunately.
