First day, rescind abortion, second day, push through vouchers, third day, rescind the generic drug exception. Before getting into office: use recession to sell estate tax cut, use california power debacle debacle to justify opening the Alaskan reserves.
These motherfuckers have really hit the ground running. While Bush does his job, greeting and charming in the foyer, these guys give the impression of being focused like a laser beam on going through a numbered list of favors for their friends. And when something happens that might throw them off course, they ignore it except insofar as they can claim it justifies what they already wanted to do.
