Republican hypocrisy

Republicans aren't for lower taxes, they're for more money, for themselves.

Witness:

The top 10 states receiving more federal funding than federal taxes in 2005, along side their picks months before for President in 2004:

1. New Mexico - Bush
2. Mississippi - Bush
3. Alaska - Bush (Sarah Palin - small government - lol!)
4. Louisiana - Bush
5. West Virginia - Bush
6. North Dakota - Bush
7. Alabama - Bush
8. South Dakota - Bush
9. Kentucky - Bush
10. Virginia - Bush

and now, the top 10 states for paying more federal taxes than received federal funding, and their presidential selection in 2004:

1. New Jersey - Kerry
2. Nevada - Bush
3. Connecticut - Kerry
4. New Hampshire - Kerry
5. Minnesota - Kerry
6. Illinois - Kerry
7. Delaware - Kerry
8. California - Kerry
9. New York - Kerry
10. Colorado - Bush

I tend to agree. Let's let the beggar states fend more for themselves and start squeezing back the size of our government.
