Republicans engage in doublespeak on a daily basis--call them on it!
They're not for free enterprise; they're for propping up a select few existing companies. They're not for a small government; they're for reducing services that benefit individuals and using the government to prop-up a select few existing companies. They're not "fiscally conservative," they blow lots of money on military and pork-barreling and the like. They don't want to "keep the government out of your life," they want to keep the government out of businesses lining their pocket and keep it in your life, preventing things like abortions, gay marriage, stem cell research and marijuana usage.

What they say is pretty much always the opposite of what they want to do. Every single time you hear a person talk about how the republicans are for "small government" or being "fiscally responsible", call them on it. Do not let a day go by that they are allowed to engage in doublespeak, completely unchallenged.
