Will the Republicans stick to their "smaller government" promises?

No Republican has shrunk the size of government since the founding of the party by Abraham Lincoln. And no Republican will.

Nor will any Libertarian, because the American people don't want a small government. Oh, they might say they do, but every voter is a special interest, and one man's pork is another man's entitlement.

"Growing government less than the other guy" is about the best you're going to get.

Sorry if you don't like that, but that's reality.

So we should just sit back and shut up as our government gets bigger and more un-Constitutional? Now I know your a crackpot.

You should at least show some shame to call yourself a Conservative. You're nothing more than just another "Big Government" stooge.

Little better than a fascist that the lefties claim you are. If the definition fits, don't bother bitching about it either.

I guess we know which side of the battle lines you'll be on come the next revolution. Tory.

Holy s**t, you finally said something wise and truthful.

So you're saying would should accept the downfall of our country and accept the fact that true freedom will not be seen by our children?
