If you act like a liberal to get Democrat votes, you can't do something conservative when you win without losing those new voters. Bush requested $15 billion to fight AIDS in Africa and let Ted Kennedy write an education bill that spent more on "the children" than ever, and they still rip him to shreds on those issues. You know, Republicans told us that we needed to give them control of the House, Senate and White House to get something done.
Rush had been tepid about criticizing the White House with the war on. It's like Bush thinks that Democrats will love him for this spending and Republicans will ignore it. I think the opposite is happening on both ends. It's time for Congressional Republicans to stand up to the administration and say no on new spending.
