Never said that. However from a historical perspective government grows the least when we have opposing parties occupying the Legislative branch and the Executive branch. If the parties can't agree on anything, little if anything gets done. Of course then you have the entertainment value of political hacks taking up airtime to complain about the other 'team'.

If the majority of the citizens of the respective states are going to continue to vote based solely on party and ignore General Washington's sage advice, then perhaps the best that can be hoped for is gridlock. Isn't one of the end goals of classical liberalism (one basis for conservatism) to limit government?

True, but if we are this close to having a conservative USSC, is it wise to allow that to stall until RATS gain control to reverse that trend?

Sorry, no matter how pissed I get, I won't be party to letting that happen.

We have opposing parties. The Republicans vs the RINOs. Hopefully, someday, we'll have enough Republicans to overpower both the RINOs and their Democrat accomplices.
