For too long, those who wanted big runaway government have gotten what they wanted....The truth is, we only really have one party with two competing factions: the "spend money over here" party, and the "spend money over there" party.

*Ping!*

Well stated.

My friends, we must get rid of the earmarks - Juan McDemocrat.

The article commentary is sort of the opposite of your pretending to be a small government fraudulent big spending, earmarking hero Ron Paul.

But what else can we expect from you?

Yes.

This may come as a surprise to some in Washington, but you know, you can't run massive government programs like Medicare and Medicaid and the FDA and the medical boards, and many, many others and then say "the free market doesn't work in health care, so we'll run it, instead."

Well stated. The republicans don't hammer these points, or even mention them usually, and so get little traction. They just seem like whiny slow motion socialists, favoring mostly socialism for "health care providers".
