Can't answer a question with a question rev... Republicans haven't been about small government for some time. The problem, as The Rev notes, is that the two parties are counteracting each other... Dems have actually blown up the biggest part of the budget, which is domestic spending, without noticeable results. They leave behind disasters that blow up during Republican administrations. They haven't put a real Liberal -- want to fix shit kinda guy -- in office since Carter. The Republicans, similarly, haven't had a strong leader since Reagan. However, much as I thought I'd never say this, I think Bush is doing a good job. The criticism directed toward him is generally unrealistic. It's time for America to consider dividing into liberal and conservative zones, neither of which have to pay for or implement the policies of the other. In which would you rather live? I think conservatives should get back to small government, lack of nanny state, and take on traditional conservative positions like legalizing drugs and ending welfare (replace with job insurance). I don't want to pay for the drug war. Also, I want drugs to kill off the weak. The Republicans are in many ways hampered by the few Christians who are fanatical, who command undue influence. In general, however, which policies have benefitted the country as a whole, even if inconvenient for me? Those of the Republicans. In addition to not trusting the Change Salesman, I like the Republican platform more. However, we should not close our eyes to Ron Paul. Having a three-or-more party system would be great!
