Unfortunately, "tax and spend" is exactly what's wrong, whether it's in 
the "tax and spend" or the "debt and spend" flavor. I completely agree 
that having a balanced budget should be one of the paramount 
considerations used to determine whether our government is doing a good 
job or not.

Sadly, your comment simply highlites your complete and total devotion to 
one party over the other. In my opinion, you've decided that "this is 
good" and "that is bad", so you continue to support your decision by any 
means necessary, with sarcastic condemnation for anyone with an opposing 
viewpoint. On top of it, you mask this behavior in a thin veil of 
objectivity, that anyone who's read 1/3 of your posts and has an open 
mind doesn't believe. On some occasions, you "want more facts", but when 
facts are presented, you change your attack angle. You asked for one 
left-wing liar, and were presented with Bill Clinton, so you then rebut 
with the fact that he didn't really "lie", but just used a perfectly 
acceptable loophole AND that they shouldn't even be asking the question!!!

...in either party, which is why I refuse to support either of them, 
even if it means throwing my vote away. I feel that we have reached a 
point where only real idealism can save us. This constant bantering 
between conservatives and liberals has reached a level of banality that 
simply should not be tolerated by the American public.
