No, they fucking did not

My politics are wandering all over the place, though right now I think they're tending towards Guillotine Party, but this line from Brad Delong: A Clinton-era centrist Democrat explains why it’s time to give democratic socialists a chance:
“Barack Obama rolls into office with Mitt Romney’s health care policy, with John McCain’s climate policy, with Bill Clinton’s tax policy, and George H.W. Bush’s foreign policy,” DeLong notes. “And did George H.W. Bush, did Mitt Romney, did John McCain say a single good word about anything Barack Obama ever did over the course of eight solid years? No, they fucking did not.”
I believe history will remember Obama as something like a Reagan, though possibly with a little less illegal arms dealing.
