Intellectual honesty…

Intellectual honesty among conservatives:

Sean Spicer, spokesman for Rep. Jim Nussle, Iowa Republican and the conservative chairman of the House Budget Committee, said the spending increases appear worse when lumping in the annual late-year “emergency” congressional expenditures that he said are little more than thinly veiled pork projects.

“Even without the emergencies, we’re looking at [spending] numbers well above inflation, and that’s definitely a concern,” Mr. Spicer said.

This is in regards to the Medicare bill in particular, but overall spending in general. Some might call this “infighting”, but I call it honest debate in a party that doesn’t blindly follow the leader.

Here’s some more honest debate from Sen. Chuck Hagel, senior senator from Nebraska.
