Libertarians say Obama same as Bush
Libertarians say Obama same as Bush
President Obama has brought more of the same -- not change you can believe in.
At least according to the Libertarian Party, which said this evening that its "top 10 disasters" of the Obama administration's first year have a striking similarity to the Bush administration.
"Republicans and Democrats keep expanding government and creating more and more problems. We're encouraging as many Libertarians as possible to run for Congress in 2010," Wes Benedict, the Libertarian Party executive director, said in a statement.
He said that in Texas, the state with the earliest candidate filing deadline, Libertarians have already filed for 31 of 32 congressional seats.
In no particular order, the Libertarians said, the 10 "disasters" of Obama's watch:
1. Cash for clunkers
2. War escalation in Afghanistan
3. Giant government health care expansion bill
4. Post office loses money hand over fist
5. Stimulus package
6. Expansion of "state secrets" doctrine
7. Big increase in unemployment
8. "Bailout" [Tim] Geithner as treasury secretary
9. Skyrocketing federal spending
0. Huge federal deficits
