Big Government Conservatives

It boggles the mind. Before conservatives met Reagan and Bush, they were for small government. Out of one side of Reagan's mouth we heard the small government line. Out of the other side he grew government spending and government in general to the point of ruin.

Then along came this hot shot lawyer from Arkansas and his senate side-kick from Tennessee. Do you know what Al Gore did that saved us from bankruptcy? He guided the NPR. Not National Public Radio, the National Performance Review. The Osborne and Gabler thing. Remember them? They trimmed the fat from many agencies. Al Gore reinvented government and saved us from bankruptcy. Clinton budgeted us into surplus easily from there.

Now, Bush has sank us deeper into debt than Reaganomics did. He grew the government faster than ever before in history.

How is that conservative?
