68. A recent poll indicates that many people in the United States hold a combination of conservative and liberal political views; i.e., they denounce the big government, saying government is doing too much and has become too powerful, while at the same time supporting many specific government programs for health care, education, and the environment.

A) they denounce the big government, saying government is doing too much and has become too powerful, while at the same time supporting

B) they denounce big government- they say that government is doing too much and has become too powerful-but supporting at the same time

C) they denounce big government, say that government is doing too much and it has become too powerful, while they support at the same time

D) while they denounce big government, saying that government is doing too much and has become too powerful, at the same time supporting

E) while they are denouncing big government- they say that government is doing too much and it has become too powerful-supporting at the same time

We will go by process of elimination

E is absurd
D is not parallel...instead of supporting it should have been they support
C misplaces "at the same time "
B too vague..

left with A

I doubt if A can be termed the answer - supporting is not parallel with denounce.
IMO, the correct response would be
they denounce the big government, saying government is doing too much and has become too powerful, while at the same time support
Maybe the question was posted with a typo?
