<i>"Do I need to remind you that not everyone interested in shrinking government expenditures is a Republican?"</i><p>Considering that I'm one of those people, probably not.  Did you bother to look at my original post, or did you just read the last comment in the thread?<p>(C'mon folks...the parent comment doesn't even <i>make sense</i> in light of what I wrote.  Don't just vote up comments because they sound vaguely like they come from people on your side of the political spectrum.)
