"The modern-day, limited-government movement has been co-opted. The conservatives have failed in their effort to shrink the size of government. There has not been, nor will there soon be, a conservative revolution in Washington. Political party control of the federal government has changed, but the inexorable growth in the size and scope of government has continued unabated. The liberal arguments for limited government in personal affairs and foreign military adventurism were never seriously considered as part of this revolution. "

I'm glad that Ron Paul sees this. I've been seeing this for awhile.

Um, Ron Paul gave this speech in 2007.

Yeah reading into the third paragraph, I realized I'd have read this before over at Lew Rockwell.

However I think this applies to the modern situation IMO.

This is the speech I like to send to all the republican friends I know.....so that they can realize what big spending government advocates they really are.

I know, but it's front and center on LRC.com for a reason. Just reminding people where we stand.

Thanks for telling something a lot of us already new.

It is still highly relevant.
