I’m not a big fan of Senator John McCain, however, he’s saying things that resonate with us fiscal conservatives… In prepared remarks Friday, McCain said, “Republicans intent on safeguarding power in Washington have drifted from the values of the Reagan presidency and ushered in an era of reckless spending and government growth that threatens to drive them from office”. Indeed, President Bush has thrown money at everything… residents of New Orleans, medicines for everyone, troops in Iraq. To me, it’s a simple problem of the US overextending ourselves.
