5. I like what Harry Reid said about deficits.
I don't recall the quote exactly, but it was something like: The other day they had a party over at the White House to celebrate that they had only the third largest deficit in history. This penchant for big government is one reason I left the Republican party. I had never liked their social agenda, but I believe in small government. The Republicans used to talk a good game, but really all recent Republican presidents have been big spenders. They just like to spend it on tax cuts for the rich.

Yes, they're all for freedom, as long as it's all about their freedom to exploit the working class. The "ownership society"; that's where the rich own the poor, right?
