"I don't want to be in Washington another six years and watch the Republican party betray the trust of the American people again. I mean, we had the White House. We had a majority in the House and the Senate. We voted for more spending and more earmarks. Most of our senior members seem to be focused on taking home the bacon. I'm not going to be in a Republican party like that and that's not what the Republican Party is across America," Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) told FOX News.

All I can say is DeMint is a cool last name, and going forward I want everyone to refer to me as LeChocolat.

I'd like to know what HIS voting record was from 2001-2006. Was he the lone republican "no" vote on all of those bills, or has he just recently become so principalled.

He may as well leave now.
The GOP getting rid of the $600.00 reporting rule will probably be the most they want to do for this "limited government" agenda.
Immigration
War
Lying prostrate before Israel
Spending
It's full speed ahead !
