Regime, Who's Using The Word?

By Douglas V. Gibbs

Rush Limbaugh recently began to call the Obama Administration "The Regime."

The Leftists are terribly upset, believing the use of the word is divisive, and has no place in American politics - despite the fact that they used the word often when referring to George W. Bush.



By the way, the word regime is normally used in relation to a form of government that is oppressive to the people. So, as the Obama Administration and the Congressional Democrats destroy the private sector with oppressive big government policies, and is working to silence the opposition with hate crime laws, and literally calling out Fox News and the Tea Partiers in their speeches and press conferences, don't you think that the word regime is appropriate when referring to the current Democrats in power?
