Tax-n-spend is NOT "fiscal conservatism."

There is no doubt we can cut spending... the first place is the military and Iraq. Are we rally that much of a target that we have to spend more than the rest of the world combined? We eliminate 'nation building', another conservative no-no and we can save a bunch.

Just because the Republicans of the past eight years have been about "borrow-n-spend" does not make you or the Democrats "fiscal conservatives."

At least they reinstated pay-go. If you look at the stats recent Dem admins have lowered the deficit while recent Rep admins have raised it.

Probably the funniest thing is if you are looking for the 'model deficit hawk' in recent years you have to award it to Bill Clinton.
