Calvin Coolidge, born July 4: Hero to tea partiers Breaking News The Herald Bulletin
They are building a museum in his honor. With his austerity, shouldn't they instead donate they money raised to...I don't know...BP or something?

Coolidge was the last president who truly practiced limited government the way the Founders intended.

Where did the founders state what size government they expected in the year 2010?
Where do they put any limitations on the size of government?

Yeah, what page of the Constitution is that on?

Although the public liked and admired Calvin Coolidge during his tenure, the Great Depression that began in 1929, less than a year after he left office, seriously eroded his reputation and changed public opinion about his policies.
His policies that favored tax cuts for the rich seriously contributed to an unfair distribution of wealth and the overproduction of goods. By 1929, the nation had over five hundred families with incomes over $1 million, and the top fifth of the population controlled nearly 60 percent of the nation's wealth.
And these three presidents died on that day.
John Adams (1826)
Thomas Jefferson (1826)
James Monroe (1831)
I wonder how soon before we no longer celebrate this most important day? It would change to Dependence Day, November 4th, 2012, if we are not wise.....
Where do they put any limitations on the size of government?
Enumerated Powers ring any bells?
STATES can become fat bloated sacks of protoplasm, and suffer the repercussions. but the feds are strictly limited... when governed honestly and constitution interpreted accurately, which it hasn't been since 1932.
It's also interesting that Adams last words were "Thomas Jefferson lives!". Jefferson had died earlier that day.And these three presidents died on that day.
John Adams (1826)
Thomas Jefferson (1826)
James Monroe (1831)

Its amazing that both Adams and Jefferson who worked together on the Declaration of Independence died on the exact same day exactly 50 years after its signing

In the conservative 1980s, Coolidge regained some of his stature. President Ronald Reagan returned his portrait to the Oval Office. Reagan also praised Coolidge's political style and complacent leadership for producing four years of prosperity, peace, and balanced budgets. Nevertheless, scholarly opinion looks upon the Coolidge presidency with skepticism, ranking him among the lowest of American chief executives in terms of his administration's positive impact and legacy.
Sure it does. You have only a short list of things federal government may do. The Fed size is then governed by logistics and waste toleration.Where do they put any limitations on the size of government?

Nothing restricts the size of the federal government..
Nice bluff though

Still playing a losing hand......
Can you back it up with Legal findings?

RW, can you believe that Fits is still claiming that he is a constitutional scholar and has anything worthwhile to say about it. He is the forum punch bag on this issue and keeps coming back for more.
You are right. The Constitution says nothing about the size of the government.
