A serious effort must be made by the GOP to bring the federal budget under control. The #1 priority should be fighting waste, fraud and abuse in the federal bureaucracy.

Don't hold your breath.

The first thing the new Bush administration did was to cover up and close down investigations into Sh$%head Clinton's waste, fraud and abuse.

It hasn't done a damn thing since then except to increase government waste, fraud and abuse. Spending is completely out of control now, thanks to George Bush.

I'll vote Libertarian.

The Libertarians will win in a cold day in hell. We've all learned to come to love big government but not what the other side thinks we mean by our cooptation of it.
