Now that's an understatement ...

From a editorial by Republican Rep from Arizona, Jeff Flake:
I suggest that we return to first principles. At the top of that list has to be a recommitment to limited government. After eight years of profligate spending and soaring deficits, voters can be forgiven for not knowing that limited government has long been the first article of faith for Republicans.
After that whopping understatement he goes on to propose propagandizing a message of 'economic freedom' as a way to save the Republican Party and stop the Democrats from implementing any meaningful changes to help the country out of the mess Bush and these same Republican left it in. I suppose there are plenty of people willing to believe them again.

By the way, Jeff Flake was the only member of Congress to vote no on the Plain Language in Government Communications Act of 2008.

NOTE: Some wording changed in this post.
