To say that Conservatives are concerned with the amount of government spending is ludicrous. Check the numbers again.

The difference between some of us and Conservatives is that some of us believe that spending hundreds and hundreds of billions on killing people who were no threat is wasteful, and

Conservatives believe that providing medical care to children is wasteful.

Conservatives seem to love funding optional wars to the point of driving the country into a recession so that there will be no money left for social matters.

The Conservative "spend and borrow and borrow and borrow and spend some more" agenda, passing debt onto someone else seems far, far more destructive to the country than a alleged "tax and spend" agenda.

But for Conservatives to complain about large government and spending is just plain silly. So far out of touch with the reality that it boggles the mind.
