Like your “typical” republican, I am leery of big government.  I think government has gotten way too big, too many hands in too many pockets, too many self-serving politicians, too many people only looking out for themselves.  I however veer from my fellow republicans on issues of immigration.  I agree with the need to secure our borders, I agree that the federal government needs to do their job, I don’t agree with the way Arizona is going about dealing with immigration issues, and I’ve talked about that before.
