Facts are difficult things for liberals to understand, as they are emotion based organisms.

1. The congress controls spending
2. The democrats gained control of congress in 2006
3. Spending went out of control in 2006
4. The democrats were ejected from Congress in 2010
5. In 2011 the focus is now in controlling spending, given that the adults are back in control of spending issues.

I guess its the change I see in civiltiy really.Just compare the police training and actions governamnt seeing as having to take to protect them. They bascially now have to have equipment similar to our troops in combat because of the violence and risk. Even then we have a hard time retaining police in the job.Look at how common citizens often act when getting a tciket in the cop films.Its just shows that people are less civil and that isn't counting the christmas shopping videos we see every year. The old 1% rule of police has changed. They use to say the one per cent that your mother warned you about is who they policed. Now its likely the 40% that are plain ole uncivil. It makes them treat all of us as if we may shoot them in every contact.If you want the change to a civil society you have to start with yourself.I don't mind saying yes sir and no sir to start showing that respect.
