From a Times book review of Jonathan Alter's The Center Holds: "It is an environment in which anti-government conservatives have faced off against the administration over health care reform, taxes and a host of other issues."
So if you oppose ObamaCare or tax increases you're "anti-government"? A lot of people who oppose ObamaCare and oppose tax increases are quite patriotic and are not anarchists. They just think government shouldn't get any bigger, or should get smaller. That doesn't necessarily make them anti-government, any more than it makes someone who prefers his steak in half-pound portions rather than one-ton portions a vegetarian.
For some reason the Times seems to find this a hard concept to grasp.
