Well, we've worked our butts off fer 50+ years to get a GOP POTUS with a GOP-controlled Congress, with the hope being that we will finally be able to rein in the relentless growth of the Federal Leviathan. Unfortunately, imho, Bush has so far rebuffed efforts to pursue a more conservative fiscal policy, and I fear that the result may end up being a discouragement of the RightWingBase, which could in turn result in the RATS regaining control of Congress or the White House, or both. Then, where would we be and how long would it take us to regain control of both of these branches of government to take another swing at instituting some fiscal sanity? If we fail to take advantage of our presently dominant situation, I do think folks will look back at this period of history 100 years from now and see it as a unique opportunity lost.

If that were the case, folks would be taking a totally differant look at FDR. Instead, he is praised (by the majority) for starting Social inSecurity, and for successfully prosecuting the war.
