>>A Bushbot is someone who relexively agrees or defends the president no matter if his policies are in contrast to Republicanism or Conservatism, even to the point of attacking fellow Republicans or Conservatives. An example of this might be Harriet Miers, Dubai Ports, spending, or illegal aliens.<<

I think that should be the definition from a conservative point of view (with liberals having their own definition)...

But the term seems to be applied more and more to conservative who disagre with him, think things through and then make a decision not to attack the President while we are at war and he is under attack from liberals.

I don't think that is true at all. The great majority of people who disagreed with Bush on specific policies, have almost unwavering support for the war on terror and other areas.

Agreed. There are those who see a lack of criticism as an endorsement of all that President Bush does. I don't agree with everything that he has done, but I'm not going to publicly criticize him. If that makes me a bush-bot, or appear to be a bush-bot, so be it.
