Honest politician?

I don't know much about Congressman Jeff Flake (R-AZ) but if this comment is truly indicative of his position on government spending then he sounds like my kind of politician. He was explaining his vote against Financial Literacy Month.

“Given Congress' appetite for pork barrel spending and penchant for deficits, we’re in no position to lecture anybody on financial literacy,” said Flake. “Perhaps we should have included a provision in the bill requiring Congress to practice what it preaches.”
