The scramble for America
Patrick J. Buchanan

What is it that distinguishes Bush Republicanism from the Coolidge, Taft, Eisenhower and Reagan varieties? Four major issues come to mind.
Bush is a “Big Government conservative” who repudiated the “government-is-the-problem” philosophy of Reagan. His No Child Left Behind program, doubling the size of the Department of Education, and his vast expansion of Medicare to cover prescription drugs so testify.

Second, Bush believes in Wilsonian interventionism, including the use of military force, to advance a “global democratic revolution” and “end tyranny on earth.”

Third, Bush believes in open borders, amnesty and “a path to citizenship” for 12 million to 20 million illegal aliens, and smoothing the way for untold millions more to come and “do the work Americans will not do.”

For the record: I agree with Pat. Read the rest here and see if you do as well.
