I was just watching some Republicon on Hardball spewing the new line... "Obama says he's for change, but these bailouts and this stimulus bill are just a continuation of the Bush Administration's irresponsible spending..."
So, it's come to this... They have finally admitted that the Bush Administration was a disaster. But of course they don't apologize for their 6 years of giving Bush everything he wanted or their two years of filibusters. No, now they are trying to convince the American people that Bush and Obama are peas in the same irresponsible-spending pod. They're here to save us from the hell that is the Bush/Obama era...
Their gall is... what... jaw dropping?... unparalleled?... sorry for the stutter... I just threw up a little in my mouth.
They won't get away with this... too many people are paying attention and and too many people are keeping the spotlight where it needs to be... on changing our society's fiscal priorities from lining the pockets of the ultra-rich to meeting the citizenry's needs.
Unless...
Obama and the Dems sell out the people who elected them (entirely possible)... Then Chris Matthews' grinning conservative champion will be proved right... Let's keep our leaders honest and prove these bastards wrong.
