An excellent point. Most R's are not pro- small .gov or even anti- big .gov. They just want the money to goto their pet projects not the other guys.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
