A Platform of Lies . . . .

[redcliffsw]

Republicans insist that "over-regulation is the quiet tyranny of the 'Nanny State.'" Over-regulation "hamstrings American businesses and hobbles economic growth." The "federal regulatory burden has been a major contributor" to economic stagnation." Does this mean that Republicans want to end the nanny state? Of course not.

Republicans recognize that "Congress and federal agencies have increased the number of criminal offenses in the U.S. Code from 3,000 in the early 1980s to more than 4,500 today." They acknowledge that "the over-federalization of criminal justice is one of many ways in which the government in Washington has intruded beyond its proper jurisdiction." Does this mean that Republicans want to eliminate all laws against victimless crimes? Of course not.

Like I said, what a platform of lies
