I didn't pay much attention to George W. Bush early on in his campaign for the presidency, but around March of 2000 I started paying close attention to him and I could see he was a moderate conservative. If 50 was the middle on a scale to 100, I would classify him as a 65. I have lived long enough to know that a true liberal or a true conservative will NEVER be elected in this country. The best we will ever do is have a leader who changes the general direction of the country when it comes to domestic issues. But we are extremely lucky when we have someone like Bush who changes the direction of the country while exhibiting axtrordinary leadership when it's needed most, and after 9/11 he has been an extrordinary leader

This is SO true, Mike. And what I think is missing in his not-conservative-enough critics, is the ability to even SEE the direction the country is headed in, let alone appreciate it.

There has been a tectonic shift in this country's values......not only because of 9/11, but because of the leadership of George W. Bush following 9/11.........but the hyper-conservatives are so tunnel visioned that all they can do is whine about the things they don't agree with.

Re your 925... Oh God, a conservative with a working brain. How refreshing!!
