Fiscal responsibility.
No "baseline budgeting." If you don't know what that is, look it up. It's a great scam and a "conspiracy" (ooohhh, wait, us conservatives can use that bugaboo too...).
Repeal "Social Security." It's a Ponzi scheme at this point and the bill's coming due.
Eliminate Federal Departments. Want a list? Let me know....

It's more like the political equivilent of throwing a molotov cocktail at a government building.

Fiscal responsibility. I'd say Kerry was more for this than Bush. He was adamant about cutting everything except health care and education.
No "baseline budgeting." If you don't know what that is, look it up. It's a great scam and a "conspiracy" (ooohhh, wait, us conservatives can use that bugaboo too...). Like you suggested, conservatives are just as guilty of this.
Repeal "Social Security." It's a Ponzi scheme at this point and the bill's coming due.Bill Clinton was pushing to privatize it.

My understanding was that Kerry wanted to do this, and Bush has certainly increased departments.

Lets see, didn't Bush create the Department of Homeland security? (I admit I might be wrong about this)

I think Bush also formed the Department of Well Behaved German Shepards (http://www.dogpatchgazette.com/humor/selfconfidence.jpg). That is my understanding (I admit I might be wrong about this too)

Didn't say anything about that. AND, I'm not a part of the current Administration, so that's NOT the point of this thread. This is more of a philosophical point and debate, not an opportunity to indict the current status quo in the country.
