Obama’s Fear Mongering by Jonah Goldberg on National Review Online (http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=Y2Y5ZWI3MmRjOTljZDY5NjBiNTUxYWQxODE4NTFhOTE=)

“Rule 1: Never allow a crisis to go to waste,” White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel told the New York Times right after the election. “They are opportunities to do big things.”

Can anyone think of a fairly recent event that was used as the pretext to all sorts of things?
