What a difference a year makes!

Last March 7, I wrote a very short post entitled "We've come a long way, baby." This is what it said:
"Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country." John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

"I'm going to provide health care for you. I'm going to give you a $3500 tuition tax credit and expand Pell grants for you. I'm going to allocate up to $5 billion in immediate assistance to help you weather the foreclosure crisis. I'm going to give you $1 billion to pay your energy bills." Hillary Clinton.

"Basically ditto." Barack Obama.

The Democrats sure have changed in the last 48 years.

Wow! How much those Democrats can change in just one year! Those numbers sound awfully tame compared to the $1.75 trillion Obama's throwing around now that he's in office -- and the hogs at the trough continue to ask for more every day. I hate to have to say it, but I told you so!
