Conservatives know government is force and yet quite a few of them want to use it to boss around others. We have no right to complain when liberals use it do the same thing if we're not willing to give up on government as an instrumental of societal change. Then elections don't really matter much because the only difference is who yanks your chains around. Give the American people some credit last year for saying they thought the GOP became the Party Of Big Govermment. They were right.

I don't believe that for a second. We'd LIKE it to mean that, but I see zero indication that Americans replaced the GOP because they perceived it had become a "big government," because they replaced it with a "bigger government" party.

The American people didn't say "We're sick of big government! Out with the GOP, in with the party of healthcare for all!" Where is the evidence of this "credit" due the American people? I WISH it were so.
