Smaller government? Not if Bush has his way

[Mari333]

alarming, and shows the hypocrisy of the right and their call for "smaller government"..
and the people who voted for Bush bought the lies, hook, line and sinker..



President Bush's second-term agenda would expand not only the size of the federal government but also its influence over the lives of millions of Americans by imposing new national restrictions on high schools, court cases and marriages.




In a clear break from Republican campaigns of the 1990s to downsize government and devolve power to the states, Bush is fostering what amounts to an era of new federalism in which the national government shapes, not shrinks, programs and institutions to comport with various conservative ideals, according to Republicans inside and outside the White House.

1. It's a clear break from what bush ran on in 2000 - not just from the 90's.

You're right though, Americans have bought it hook, line, and sinker. And now they're beating the war drum for Iran. It's just a matter of time before the EU and China launch an all-out assault on the East Coast.
