Having voted for President Bush twice, many Conservatives are "trusting him" to accomplish a few items of national concern:

- fight a global war against Islamo-facism, and fight it to win it ASAP

- mobilize the country to fight and win this global war against Islamo-facism, militarily, economically, socially

- secure our borders during a time of war, by building a wall/fence and/or using the military if necessary

- enforce immigration laws during a time of economic instability and post 9-11 job losses

- lead the charge for American energy independence from our unfriendly "allies" in the Middle East

- cut Federal spending on items unrelated to winning the war against Islamo-facism

- cut Federal bureaucracy so that we are better prepared to thwart a 9-11 like attack or prepare for it's aftermath

Should we now "trust him" on his nomination of Miers?

So it's not about Meiers, it's about your personal grievances and she's the vehicle for your anger.

Bush has lead the charge on the greatest expansion of government since the Lyndon Johnson administration. Non-defense discretionary spending has increased at the fastest rate since LBJ. We've had the largest expansion of Medicare since the program began.

Absolutely nothing has been done to stop illegal immigration. In fact, the Bush administration policies have resulted in an increase in illegal immigration.

Should we now "trust him" on his nomination of Miers?

No. Bush has proven not to be a conservative. We tolerated all the other nonsense under the condition he fix the courts by appointing originalists to it. He broke his promise and any credibility he had about being a man of his word.
