Bush Is a Big Government Liberal

Andrew Sullivan | The Daily Dish:

"Jonah said much of this before the last election. My own view is that this will soon become the conservative consensus, if it isn't already. It will take a generation to undo the damage that Bush has done to conservatism, America's fiscal health, and the whole idea of limited government. My prediction: we will see huge tax increases soon after Bush leaves the scene. He will insist they are a betrayal of his legacy. They will, in fact, be the logical consequence of everything he has said and done. Once they get past their loathing, big government liberals may well look back on the Bush years and wonder at the miracle of how he did what they spent two generations failing to do."

Yep. It's deja vu all over again. Some Democrat will get stuck cashing all the checks (raising taxes) that Bush (and Reagan and Nixon) policies wrote.
