I haven't heard of many of those things, but some of the things I have heard of, like WMD cannot be blamed on Bush alone, no matter how hard libs try.

I didn't read most of that because I never said Bush was the solid example of small government. For some reason there's the automatic assumption that I'm a Bush fan. I will defend him against lies from the left, and I can see why he did a lot of what he did, but I wouldn't say I'm a fan. There's a lot I didn't like about him as well.
Actually there's debate within the republican party between moving towards the center (i.e. the left) or staying with tried & true conservatism. For the republicans, I say it's Small Government stupid.
Bottom line, making up districts to funnel money to who knows where is pretty crooked.
