Clinton balanced the budget in the face of conservative opposition that worked to shut down the government over that issue.I agree that Democrats and Republicans are both for big government, just in two different areas.

However, I just wanted to point out to you that the only reason Clinton was able to balance the budget was from him stealing from Social Security. He made the appearance of a balanced budget when it really wasn't.]]>226313

In fact, LBJ was committed to not overspending the budget, even with the Great Society programs. Clinton balanced the budget in the face of conservative opposition that worked to shut down the government over that issue.

It just depends on how you look at it and whether or not you are going to believe people that repeat mantras like "Democrats love big government, Republicans like small government." As for me, I stopped watching Sesame Street a long time ago, and understand that such simple statements are nowhere near true.]]>226217

Limited government and controlling domestic spending is pretty much my number one issue. This country has suffered the past 20 years from fiscal liberalism.

And don't blame the politicians, the blame lies with our gimme gimme gimme society. We vote for whoever bakes us the most cookies.

What we need is a less extreme Ron Paul-type whom people would actually vote for. I was never a Paul-head, but I would vote for him in a second over the current selection. Even a Fred Thomson would be a step in the right direction.

I'm voting this November, but you can't make me enjoy it.]]>226058
