Obama's Budget Supports Failed Bush Policies

"In fact, as Riedl pointed out, the Obama and Democratic budgets would 'actually accelerate' Bush's fiscal policies, producing "more runaway spending, more bailouts and even bigger deficits. The president is not repudiating Bushism -- he's doubling down on it."

"Is he ever. Increasing government spending by $1 trillion over the next 10 years; raising taxes on millions of Americans and businesses by $1.4 trillion over the next decade; and doubling the publicly held federal debt to more than $15 trillion."
