Now if the party of smaller government wanted BIG Bad government out, you would think this would be the first step. Since they have pissed and moaned about the NSA and everything under the sun. However, like less government spending which they proudly claim to be for, they allow business as usuall. Then again they let this bill pass and they would have trouble fear mongering.
I agree with you on this. Course there are big gov'ment repubs (prog types) just like the now vast majority of you all libs. We are fighting them...and the American people are becoming more aware.
Republicans want government out of our lives! but they want to ban gay marriage, keep marijuana use illegal even for medical reasons, keep doctor-assicted suicide for the terminally ill illegal, ban abortion etc. Republicans are Libertarian until they are Authoritarian.
