“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Never made a promise he couldn't break

American Progress has a chart documenting the promises of Bush/Cheney2000 with the results four years later.(thanks electablog)

Some of Bush's greatest hits (or misses in this case?):
"The Social Security surplus must be locked away only for Social Security."

George W. Bush "will also ensure that the federal government, which is the country's largest polluter, complies with all environmental laws."

and of course,
"As President, Governor Bush will…pay the debt down to a historically low level."

Head over to see the truth.
