Oh, so NOW its time to stop spending like a drunken sailor...

How convenient, Mr. President. After 6 years of spend, spend, spend, no pork you didn't like, backroom, GOP-only, wee hours of night deals being OK by you, suddenly fiscal responsibility is back in your limited vocabulary? What is it, Mr. President, a New Year's resolution? Hmmm, it has nothing to do with the fact that you no longer control the purse strings? Its not that money might now be spent on programs you don't agree with, does it? You $%*& two-faced piece of #^&@*!

You don't want the government to spend less money, you want the government not to spend money on stuff you don't like. Not exactly a crazy notion, so why lie about it and pretend you are "fiscally responsible" and just want "limited government"? We have 6 years of evidence (and the Dept. of Homeland Security) to show us that this is not true. At least Congressman Goode let the American people see what he stands for.

Well, I hope the Democratic Congress DOES act more responsibly than Hastert, DeLay and the rest of the crew that has spent the new century on a Jack Abramoff-fueled spending spree.

We're still not going to authorize $1 billion for a program telling teenagers that abstinence and prayer is the only way not to get pregnant, so piss off!
