So Futile

Have you ever watched a dog chasing a car and wondered what they would do with it if they ever caught it? That's the problem for conservatives who actually believe in small government. Once they get in power, they realize that lawmakers are elected to do something about the nation's problems. Federal lawmakers can't just point to every problem and say that the state legislatures should come up with solutions. So, trust me, the next time the Republicans win control of Congress, they are going to revert to type. They will do the same thing they've done the last two times they had power. They'll run up huge deficits because they'll still spend gads of money of federal programs but they'll refuse to pay for them by raising revenues. That is why the teabagger movement is so futile.

1. Dogs don't chase cars to catch them....

...the goal is to steer them, and that's kinda like what the republicans want to do. It's about control. Fortunately, a rolling tire is a democrats best friend! SPLAAAAAT!

2. There is nothing more ironic than a person running for public office

whose platform is trying to persuade you how terrible and useless all government is.
