With George W. Bush and a Republican Congress, we have had the largest increase in domestic discretionary spending since the Nixon Administration. We have had massive education spending, a violation of the Constitution, without even a token voucher program. We have had massive agriculture spending followed by a massive insurance giveaway fro farmers. We have enacted the largest entitlement program in almost 40 years. We have had steel tariffs. We have seen the passage of a clearly unconstitutional law that prohibits you and me from disseminating any message critical of any Federal officeholder within 60 days of an election. This President apologized to the Red Chinese after they shot down our airplane. We have seen American citizens declared "enemy combatants," whisked away, and made to disappear, held incommunicado wtihout access to legal counsel. That is not how democratic, constitutional republicas behave; it is how tyrannies behave.
Please explain to me how any of this advances the conservative agenda. It sounds like liberalism to me. So far, except for the war and a temporary tax cut, Bush is governing like a Democrat and the Republican Congress is going along with him.
