No president since LBJ has been as successful in expanding government and increasing the size and scope of social programs as this president.

Presidents Carter and Clinton didn’t even come close to matching President Bush’s accomplishments in expanding government social programs.

George Bush increased government size and spending more in his first two years than Bill Clinton did in his first six years. By the end of this year, he will have expanded government more than Bill Clinton did in his entire eight-year administration.

How can any conservative defend this?

Huh, no statistics, just opinion. Also nothing about the tax cuts.

Can anyone say personal agenda?

I don't think it's defensible using any language a conservative might understand. But I am interested in the reason why he's going nuts with this stuff. Is it because he loves big government? Is he trying to steal our freedom? Does he really think this stuff will "work"? Or has he calculated that he cannot be re-elected unless he yields to the spenders?

Because even though he is not a conservative, the Left hates him anyway. So why bother?

Wait until the assault weapons ban is renewed.

A Conservative can't, however a Republican can
