Expect more than what they specifically told you that they would do?

That's setting unrealistic goals, and striving for disappointment.

Mud...you should only judge a person based on their word, and measure them realistically.

There are always going to be a batch of politicians running for office, and they will stand up and make all sorts of promises.

Some of them, knowing full and well that they don't stand a chance in hell of actually winning an election, will promise anything that will garner them some support, and some donations. Others, if they have any sort of principles whatsoever, will tell you exactly where they stand on the issues, and what they will try to accomplish while in office, and understanding the very real possibility that they may actually win the election, those principles and their honesty will not allow them to make unreasonable, unattainable goals and promises.

Go back, and rather than being disappointed in the fact that Bush may have not acted as you would have had him act, see if he did, or tried to do, those things that he said he would try to do, and behaved as he said that he would behave.

This is how you measure the worth of an individual.

"Go back, and rather than being disappointed in the fact that Bush may have not acted as you would have had him act, see if he did, or tried to do, those things that he said he would try to do, and behaved as he said that he would behave."

A review of what Bush has done will show that he will be found wanting as respects his non-existant "conservatism" with the latest chapter of his obscenes spending spree, to wit,; an $87,000,000,000 GRANT to Iraq! Add to that, his embracing the democrat's domestic programs, his NOT locking down our borders and what do we have? A democrat clone that's what, just as the rest of the small r republicans in both houses. They don't even have the balls to stand up for their own judicial nominees.

"This is how you measure the worth of an individual."

He has been measured, weighed and has been found wanting.
