Lots of conservatives say there will be new taxes over their dead bodies.  All the Democrats I know are anti-waste, even if the politicians in Congress behave differently.  It's the same with conservatives, however.  All politicians have their "pet" projects, and find ways to waste our money.  The only difference are the ways they find to waste it.  I find those who borrow and spend to be even-more disingenuous.  That indentures our country forever.  We will never repay Georgie's loans from our good friends, the communist Chinese, to fund his private, little wars in the Mid East.  As it is, we are not even keeping up with the interest payments.
