Tom Delay cited the fact that the bloated transporation bill was a few million less than it could have been as example of GOP fiscal restraint. What a joke.
We've got Sen. Tom Coburn, and precious few other fiscal conservatives left in Washington. The Dems are really going to be able, amazingly, to move to the GOP's right in coming elections when it comes to controlling spending.
Never thought I'd see that day come.
What this means is that the Dems will advocate gutting the GOP pork, preserving Dem pork, and call themselves fiscal conservatives in the process.
