Sure. It was all about the Republicans pretending to want smaller government. They do that, sometimes, when there's a Democrat in the White House.

The Repubs certainly lost their way when W got into the White House. Under Newt leadership in the House, there were a number of reforms that were proposed. Some passed, some did not. But like I asked, what legislator in your opinion has done more to attempt a reversal of expanding government? You don't know is a rather lame response.

Well, if we're just going to go with attempts, Ron Paul*. Not that he ever has or ever will accomplish anything.


Not to be taken as an endorsement for Ron Paul.

Yeah, Paul isn't exactly the most pragmatic of politicians.

They don't call him Dr Nut for nuting. :) However, Newt did pass several good pieces of legislation unlike Hassart and Frist. Calling either one of those Turkey's a conservative is a joke.
