I`m a Republican only as far as I want a smaller government, I want less government intrusion, I want them to stop pissing on my money and your money, the tax dollars that we give 50 percent of, or 40 percent of, every year, and I want them to be fiscally responsible, and I want these goddamn lobbyists out of Washington. Do that and I`ll say I`m a Republican. But other than that, I want the government to take care of people who need help, like the kids in foster care, the half a million kids who are in orphanages right now - they call them foster homes, but they`re orphanages. I want them to take care of the elderly and give them free medicine, give them whatever they need. There`s tons, billions and billions of dollars that are just being wasted. Okay? I hate government. I`m apolitical. Write that down: I`m not a Republican.

You just have to learn not to read it.
