Bigger Big Government

By The Daily Dish

Marc:

Barack Obama has launched the era of the political economy, where, to an unprecedented degree, the White House will determine the course, structure and function of the American economy; where, if reports of $2 trillion worth of stimuli are to be believed, the size and scope of the federal government has the potential to nearly double over the course of eight years.

Italics mine. Without Bush paving the way for socialism, of course, and legitimizing it in every way, this nightmare would not be imminent. But it is, Blanche, it is.
