re: If 10 thugs stab you to death in an alley, each one stabbing you 10 times, it really doesn't matter the depth of each individual stab wound or which of the 100 stab wounds that kills you, you're still dead and they all contributed to your death. What a terrible analogy. The fact is the modern Republicans spend more; they have less fiscal discipline. And the neo's are the worst, they care nothing for fiscal policy. Bush is a nightmare for any traditional conservative. re: Those in power (both parties) are the thugs and we (reds & blues) are the victims. They are quite happy with us arguing amongst ourselves as they continue to take from us and our future. I don't know. On rare occasions you get some folks with some sense. The Clinton WH and the Newt Congress did a good job of holding down the growth of government; all the more impressive because it was bipartisan. Of course that was dramatically reversed. John
