Hey, Did You Hear That Democrats Won The Election?

That George Bush, man – what a monster, eh? I mean, could you even have imagined a president so destructive?

It's actually worse than you thought, though. Lately, there's been a spate of fresh revelations about some of the incredibly disastrous policies that were executed by the Bush administration.

Did you know, for instance, that they...

(snip)

...dramatically increased the influence of religion in government, directly violating the First Amendment, by lavishly spending federal dollars on "faith-based" programs, and giving religious groups massively increased power and access within the White House to shape policy questions?

...stood by silently, allowing climate legislation to be watered down to nothing, to include generous pollution allowances to coal utilities, and to undermine the EPA's authority to control carbon emissions?

...backed healthcare legislation that did little for the public and actually increased wasteful federal expenditures, while continuing to enrich insurance, medical, hospital and pharmaceutical corporation vampires?

...and lots and lots more.

Can you believe it? Can you imagine anything as absolutely evil as the Bush administration? Can you believe the stunts they pulled?

Well, try this on for size: Every item above actually reflects the actions of the Obama administration in just its first six months – not George Bush! (Although, of course, Bush did a lot of these things too, and would have likely done them all, given the chance.)

That's right, that's right. Yep. This is the record of the guy liberals scrambled to put into office, the guy who promised big-time change, and the guy whom foaming-at-the-mouth regressives run around screaming is a socialist ruining America.
