Bush won two presidential elections by doing EXACTLY what he is doing now.

You are wrong. He won by promising to do the total opposite to what he is doing now since he ran as a proponent of "limited government".

Bush won two elections for POTUS because he ran right of two Marxists--the lunatic Gore and the traitor Kerry.

Bush was the lesser of two evils. In your words, "doing EXACTLY what he is doing now" is NOT how Bush got elected. Bush ran on promises on doing exactly the OPPOSITE of what he is doing now--he is the biggest socialist spender in world history. This is NOT how he got elected. The White House website has had the same biography of Bush for some time now. It says that:

President Bush served for 6 years as the 46th Governor of the State of Texas, where he earned a reputation for bipartisanship and as a compassionate conservative who shaped public policy based on the principles of limited government

. I don't think Bush has even mentioned the words "limited government" since Inaugural Day 2001. If he would, he would be laughed off the stage. Bush ran as a conservative, but has managed as a fiscal liberal. Yes, he is fighting a war on terror, but is managing that politically correct. He promised to go after nations that harbor terrorists, yet he knows Iran is building the IEDs for Iraq and has given a free pass to Iran as well as to Syria, a nation that lets terrorists freely uses its borders.

You are 100% wrong. Yes, we are better off with Bush than Gore or Kerry, but Bush has been no friend to conservatives but the best friend liberals EVER had.

One more point: you are also wrong about Bush and Alito. Alito is NOT Bush's pick, but Alito is the pick of true conservatives. Bush picked Miers. The true conservatives who voiced extreme outrage at Bush over the Miers pick are the ones who gave us Sam Alito. Bush does not get credit for nominating him. The true conservatives who held Bush accountable and showed outrage against Bush are the ones who get credit for Sam Alito.

We know we must watch every move Bush makes and be ready to launch into response mode. The only way to have things go our way is to guide Bush along the way, as we did with the Miers rejection and the Alito pick. Never let our hatred of the RATs get in the way of Republican accountability, clear thinking about conservative agenda, limited government and the core principles our nation was founded on.

Now I have come on a further comment by you, and I see that you weren't paying attention in the last two elections. In 2000, two of the things that President Bush campaigned on was "No Child Left Behind" and prescription drug assistance for Medicare patients.

Quit trying to rewrite history.
