Neo, you have to realize that from TP's perspective, governing from the center is too extreme for his far left POV..... which he perceives is the real center. Even left of center is too far right for TP.

It appears that you are just redefining the standard definition of "center". I think it could be more easily argued that the Reagan Administraion and the two Bushes are the same thing. They are all run by Cheney, Rumsfeld, and their slowly changing staff. That makes them all tied for the farthest right American administration. It can be further argued that it is so far right that it is no longer American but neo-American. TP

IMO, the Bush II administration most resembles a cross between the administrations of our last 'Texas President' LBJ (massive unfunded spending increases, both social and military, an 'open-ended' period of war, interventionist foreign policy) and of Nixon's ('Imperial' view of the Presidency, expansion of the federal role vs. that of the states, heightened concern for, and ascertment of, executive secrecy... continued expansion of the size of government).
