re: #316 Blastforth

Limiting govenment means, for starters, not expanding goverment into areas it has not heretofore been involved. Is that a difficult concept to understand?

The largest expansion of the powers of government occurred under Abraham Lincoln and FDR…both in order to fight wars. Would you argue those were unnecessary?
Many argue that Bush tried to expand the role of the Federal government and Cheney today argues that it is necessary to fight terrorism.
Where you out there arguing that Bush and Cheney were wrong?
