Maybe he warned us about "free" drugs for seniors and more federal dollars for the educrats, but did he have to sign that sickening roast pork casserole the highway bill? Or the anti-trade steel tariffs? Even the tax cuts, which ended up being good overall thanks to the congress, were proposed by the president as a mish mash of pseudo-Keynesian "stimulus" ideas.

Call me naive, but I hoped that compassionate conservatism was mainly strategerizing and that candidate Bush was not a socialist. Kerry would have been a national nightmare, but I am very disappointed in Pres. Bush.
