True. And Bush was honest and true. At the time, there was no outcry over the Medicare expansion. A few were disgruntled but the outcry came much later after the socialists revised history and spiked the deficit. Part of their strategy is holding power is to make the argument that all politicians are the same. This is not true. Bush was far superior.

I understand what you’re saying; they like to say “everyone does it” to excuse their actions. However, as far as holding power is concerned, if you’re familiar with life on Capitol Hill you’ll realize there really isn’t all that much real difference between politicans. They’re basically all actors on stage and they desperately want to stay in the theater rather than endure the unthinkable alternative of returning home and living like a regular citizen. Life on the Hill is very good and they never want to leave. Most will say or do ANYTHING to keep their perch and their perks. Insiders (of all stripes) view the people merely as an audience they want to applaud for them.
