Another conservative jumps from the Rush-mobile that is careening toward a sudden stop:
[Conservative columnist David] BROOKS: The problem with them and the problem with Limbaugh in terms of intellectual philosophy is they are stuck with Reagan. They are stuck with the idea that government is always the problem. A lot of Republicans up in Capitol Hill right now are calling for a spending freeze in a middle of a recession/depression. That is insane. But they are thinking the way they thought in 1982, if we can only think that way again, that is just insane.
Better stuck with Reagan than Roosevelt. Reagan did not need a war to drag this country out 10% unemployment in 1940. New Deal New Schmeil.
