I know its a waste of time to engage you, but you can't really believe this can you?

Please review the most recent Highway Appropriations bill (or any of the last three or four) and repeat your statement with a straight face.

Fact is, the Congressional Republicans have increased pork-barrel 'ear-marks' by a ten-fold increase over Clinton era comparisons.

Truly. Republicans are no longer a party of small government.

Wake up, conservatives! You've been bamboozeled. You can't have your cake and eat it, too - you can't have your social programs and your tax cuts, too.
