They both want bigger government and more control. The only argument between them is what the priorities should be. The only true republican on either side is Ron Paul who advocates smaller government and less control. No I don't think he has a chance. No I am not an American but I have been reading his writings for Years. Both the republicans and democrats in the US (Republicats) are socialists. They both want bigger government and more control.

E.g., Andrew Bacevich who sees Bush's foreign policy as Woodrow Wilson full throttle; there was a Cato Institute fellow who wrote a book on Bush's economic policy who said there was nothing conservative about it (since the size of the fed govt has expanded enormously under his watch); some conservatives think Bush's faith-based initiatives are also too big-statist. Of course, the post was done tongue-in-cheek, but it does implicitly raise the question of, if these have proven the failures of the Bush presidency, whether the policies have been discredited (which pressures Dems to adopt small-state positions in domestic, and realist positions in foreign policy) or whether the people implementing those policies have been discredited. Or perhaps the distinction isn't that clean. R.A.: There are not a few US conservatives who think Bush has forsaken them.
