If Bush is an appeasor, then I would assume this means he is appeasing someone else who has an ideology, in which case he has a de facto ideology. :)

Really, though, I don't see Bush as an appeasor, quite the contrary. He's got backbone, and he sticks by his word, even when the polls are against him. He may not be Reagon, but he is getting there.

Are you joking? Every single executive decision - from stem-cell research to CFR to Sarbanes-Oxley to steel tariffs to the farm bill to affirmative action to prescription drugs - everything was based on polls.

Forgotten about CFR already? The man's word means nothing.
