I think it is more corporatist than anything.

There is nothing conservative about the size of our budget.

Over the past decade, we have also seen a huge rise in laws that restrict civil liberties. Conservative would mean not adding these laws, since conservative means status quo.

If the size of government isn't liberal or conservative, then what is it?

I know many of you think it is one or the other. I disagree.

It certainly isn't something moderate either. That budget is not moderate.

That's pretty disgusting even for the standards of European far-right.

Hell, if somebody was sprouting out that sh*t in f***ing Idaho they wouldn't survive a month into the primaries!

Are you having a rare moment of pride in Idaho?
