God forgive me for being ungrateful but I personally don't think I got what was advertised with President Bush and this administration. That is not to say that President Bush would be any better appreciated by the press or the people if he had been a principled conservative. I don't think I can listen to the speech because it would remind me of my ingratitude, dissatisfaction, frailty of discernment and the hopelessness of our craven political system.

No question we were sold a bill of goods. It wasn’t just him. The party as a whole ran as fiscal conservatives but did a damned fine job of spending like democrats during the six years we ran things. On the WOT he is an A-/B+ and on other things he is a D+/C- hence my final grade of C+ though I think the Clinton expierence has allowed some grade inflation to creep into my final mark.
