You're way off base. You, along with a number of others, don't appreciate how conservative this president is. Since 1932, there has been only one prez as conservative or more conservative than Bush, and that's Reagan. Ike, Nixon, Bush I, and Ford were all moderate Republicans. Kennedy was a somewhat conservative Democrat. Some people expect that every conservative pol will agree with them 100% of the time. On abortion, gun rights, taxes, judges, and other issues, they don't come any more conservative. Even though he's a big govt guy, I guarantee you that he's further to the right than any future president will be.

". You, along with a number of others, don't appreciate how conservative this president is. "

Of course we don't. He isn't particularly "conservative".

At BEST he's a moderate.

"On abortion, gun rights,"

He said he's sign any assault weapons bill to cross his desk and his father's EO banning importations of some firearms still stands. Lukewarm at best. It was the House that allowed the AWB to sunset.

"taxes, judges,"

Meirs.

"and other issues, they don't come any more conservative."

(1) signed CFR
(2) signed NCLB
(3) Medicare Part D
(4) amnesty for illegal aliens
(5) two trillion in more debt!
(6) "religion of peace"

"Even though he's a big govt guy, I guarantee you that he's further to the right than any future president will be."

He admit he's a "bit govt guy" and you claim he's conservative? I suppose of "conservative" means "conserving the welfare state"....
