The Republican party has historically stood upon the guise of cutting taxes and curbing growth in government spending, while accusing their Democratic partners of doing just the opposite. In a strange turn of events, the Republicans are now the leaders in big government spending with the Democrats playing the role of fiscal conservatives. Surprising how quickly a party can change its platform. In response to Brandon’s post: the point I was trying to make is that the rhetoric doesn’t match the reality.

The don't tax spend more theory does have a little basis in fact. Below is an article from the Cato Institute exploring some Tax cuts in the 20's. There has been studies that have shown lower tax rates and taxation can lead to higher tax revenue. http://www.cato.org/pubs/tbb/tbb-0302-13.pdf Nice post.
