There's some good ole liberal logic for ya right there, because left and right are defined by the whims of the two political parties in America. So are you saying McCain is of the right? He clearly is a big government, environmentalist, anti-capitalist liberal like yourself and a republican, so clearly he is of the right. If this is true then there is no difference between left and right in America.

He just demagogued folks with "small government" rhetoric, an approach still exploited by the current president, who also increased spending and the debt, while at the same time saying government can't work.
So he did the EXACT thing that Obama is doing today. Attack the Republican administration for its big government policies in order to get elected while supporting a bigger government policy.

As long as we're spending, we might as well have leaders that at least believe in the idea that the government can work.
Government can work quite effectively, for its own benefit. That's the law of incentive, and the government has different interests than I do.
