43. Am I aware?
Yeah, I can see the name of the site in my URL locater.

Are you aware that I work in both the State and Federal government? Are you aware that these enormous bureaurcracies are bloated, inefficient, and ineffective because nobody in either party is willing to stand up and tell the truth about these 'services and infrastructure'.

There is so much waste in our government that it should be illegal. Our services and infrastructure are not starved due to lack of funding, they are starved because of the monster bureauracracies that run them. These bureacracies are self-feeding and self-sustaining. They only get bigger, and people like you are fooled into thinking they need to be feed more.

As far as my "typical right-wing talking point" goes, so be it. I dont care who's idea it is... its a good idea. Our government is a giant vaccum that takes in far more than it produces. I'm not a person who goes by labels, but if you want to call me a fiscal conservative, then fine. I actually think when comparing Bush to Clinton, Clinton was the conservative one.

If you ever wish to win this political environment, you had better abandon the notion that a big all powerful government is a good thing. You should also realize that it is Bush's spending and irresponsible use of our tax dollars that has caused me to come here... CONTRIBUTING IDEAS!! With an attitude like yours, we'll never defeat the GOP.
