More on the GOP's anti-Obama Hypocricy

From the current Atlantic:
...Republicans rage against the Democrats’ bailouts, takeovers, deficits—yet all three commenced under George W. Bush, not Barack Obama. Almost every concept in Obama’s intensely controversial health plan has at one point or another been advanced by a senior Republican, from Bob Dole to Mitt Romney. I type these words having just watched Fox News’s Glenn Beck liken President Obama’s call for voluntary national service to something out of Maoist China. Obama’s service program barely differs in form, content, and rhetoric from Bush’s program, which in turn was almost identical to the program created by the elder President Bush in 1989.
We see the same thing when it comes to Israel. Obama's mid-east policy is hardly any different from Bush's - the big change came when George W. (Yes! George W.!) introduced the Road Map and the 2-State Solution - yet to hear the typically hysterical anti-Obama Israeli speak (Hi Joe Settler!) you'd think Obama was personally carving up Jerusalem, when the reality is he's basically Bush with better locution.
