Almost Honest

I see where Republican Sean Mahoney has announced his intention to run for congress in New Hampshire.  Mahoney gained a bit of national attention a couple weeks ago when he resigned from his job at the RNC after he learned of the GOP's bad habits of spending donor money on strip clubs, high priced hotels and other items not very morally conservative.  In his web video announcement, Mahoney claims the Republican Party has abandoned him and that the "Republicans are just as to blame for some of the mess we're in right now. Over the last 10 years, my Republican Party abandoned me as a conservative."

Ten years?   Why can't we include it all.  Actually, I'd really like to know the time frame when the GOP was conservative with money.

Here is the Republican record on spending-- going back more than 10 years-- while in control of congress.

 

The sharpest rises come when the GOP has total control of government.  You know the time frame when the GOP could really prove how superior it is when it comes to fiscal matters.

Here's government spending during Biblical times aka the post-conservative Revolution.

Geez it rises every year then too.  Where is this "conservatism" that supposedly has been abandoned?
