There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while
The walls come tumbling down
When they do we'll be right behind you
--Tears for Fears
Opposition to the recent continuing budget resolution numbered over 50 in the House--topping the half dozen or so 'no' votes to the first CR a few weeks back.
Does this mean that Tea Party principles are gaining traction? Perhaps, but Ron Paul is not optimistic it will be enough soon enough to proactively curb our spending and debt addiction, stating the odds as 'one in a million.'
Sadly, he may be correct.
Make no mistake, though, our addiction will cease. Am hoping (praying) for proactive measures, since the reactive measures that will be imposed by market forces will be much less palatable.

The battle between Republicans and Democrats is not about how robust or flaccid the state should be; it is merely a contest between two bullies brawling over how much loot goes to their favorite constituencies at the expense of everyone else.
As with all government spending, the state wins in every budget while the lovers of liberty, property and markets lose.
