Statist Law Professor Cass Sunstein Defends George Bush

Statist,University of Chicago Law Professor defends President Bush on Hugh Hewitt's radio show :
HH: Do you consider the quality of the media coverage here to be good, bad, or in between?

CS: Pretty bad, and I think the reason is we're seeing a kind of libertarian panic a little bit, where what seems at first glance...this might be proved wrong...but where what seems at first glance a pretty modest program is being described as a kind of universal wiretapping, and also being described as depending on a wild claim of presidential authority, which the president, to his credit, has not made any such wild claim. The claims are actually fairly modest, and not unconventional. So the problem with what we've seen from the media is treating this as much more peculiar, and much larger than it actually is.
Cass Sunstein is a man of the state.He never forgets where he'd be without Pell Grants,Sallie Mae,and other state goodies the University of Chicago gets.He's doing good work for George Bush and the state.
