Yet another example of Senator Sam Brownback saying one thing to pander to his base and then doing something completely different. On a day that had all conservatives squirming under the crushing weight of their out of control spending, Senator Brownback voted for a $2.8 Trillion federal budget just after he voted to increase the national debt ceiling to accommodate his spending spree.
If Brownback was truly principled he would have voted against the budget. He has been talking the talk about increased fiscal responsibility and now refused to walk the walk.
This vote will be used with success in the upcoming midterm elections against republican incumbents. The days when republicans could claim to be the party of small government are long gone.
