I'm not nearly as concerned with what some political operative SAID as with what elected officials are DOING. What I see our president and republican congress doing is spending like drunken sailors. Even if Gillespie's views were distorted in either of the two editorials, the republicans sure seem to be doing exactly what Gillepie was cited as advocating: giving full rein to huge central government spending. And from what I have observed, it has not been a matter of the president and a majority of republican congressmen opposing the massive spending, only to be outvoted by the RATs and RHINOs; the huge majority of republicans are leading the big-spending parade.
