GWB killed the Kyoto Treaty on Global Warming, for one.He didn't have to, the senate wsn't going to ratify it.
GWB pulled the U.S. out of the CCCP-U.S. ABM Treaty, for another.
Treaties belong to the senate...
GWB backed and got our National Missile Defense program funded.
yea.
GWB Killed the International Criminal Court.
Isn't that another area where the senate wasn't keen on the idea anywy?
GWB repealed Clinton's CO2 rules that were choking off electricity production in California and causing electricity rates to spike.
yea. And left the arsenic rules in place, right?
GWB repealed OSHA's new ergonomic regulations that were about to put every home-based business in America out of commission.
Bush did no such thing. And please explain how this would have killed home based businesses? I think you've got some bad info.
GWB appointed Ashcroft and Ted Olsen, who just wrote to the Supreme Court that the 2nd Amendment is an INDIVIDUAL right, not the "collective right" that liberals have maintained for decades.
And Ashcroft maintains that he will enofrce the current laws. Their posturing on 2A has many people believing that this is just posturing. I'll believe that they are pro 2A when they start repealing some laws.
GWB signed the bill into law that gives pilots the right to arm themselves with firearms, a pleasant pro-gun victory on a national level (currently being obstructed by a DOT bureaucrat).
Bush could have pilots armed YESTERDAY if he so desired. GWB killed the Left-Wing ABA's role in vetting federal judges for Congress.
Not quite. It seems tha the made a deal where only Californian nominees approved by Boxer and Feinstien appear before Bush.
GWB instituted the first top-down review of our military in years, which concluded (prior to 9/11), that asymmetric attacks were our biggest future threat.
He also allowed the Army to steal the Ranger's black beret and give it to REMFs.
GWB killed the $11 Billion Crusader artillery boondoggle.
Rumsfiled gets the credit and this goes against the desires of congress and the Army. But so what.
GWB killed federal funding of foreign "family planning" activities.
Good move, but mostly symbolic.
GWB ordered the Justice Department to finally enforce the SCOTUS Beck decision, giving union workers the right to recover any of their union dues that are used for political purposes with which they disagree.
Good move.
Frankly, if you aren't aware of all that GWB has done to advance the Conservative movement (including implementing steel tariffs in order to encourage European nationalism via trade wars), then you simply aren't Conservative.
Tariffs are Conservative?
Only a liberal could be so blind as to not realize what all GWB has done for our cause (oh, did I mention that GWB got taxes cut twice, once for individuals and another for businesses).
The individual tax cut was worse than a bad joke. My 7% increase in income resulted in 25%more taxes. hooray, yea.
In the mean time, as stated in the article, Bush has increase spending in unConstitutional areas to astronimical heights, established new surveillance programs that put Americans under greater governmental scrutiny than ever before, and has signed the CFR bill.
He certainly ISN'T a Conservative although he may be more conservative than some Americans. He has exposed a heck of a lot of CINO moderates on FR, however.
Whiner.
"In the mean time, as stated in the article, Bush has increase spending in unConstitutional areas to astronimical heights, established new surveillance programs that put Americans under greater governmental scrutiny than ever before, and has signed the CFR bill.

Nonsense. Congress increased spending. Sure, Bush could veto every budget bill and shut down our government. During wartime.
And he could devote all of his energies to fighting 51 Democrats in the Senate. Instead of fighting terrorists.
But sooner or later he'd have to sign a budget bill no matter how much he fought Congress.
What you want is for Bush to spend all of his time fighting Democrats in Congress (rather than fighting terrorists) so that you won't have to get off your butt to help make Congress see the light of lower spending.
Ergo, it is you who isn't Conservative.
Bush killed federal monies for foreign "family planning" activities. That's Conservative, and that's far more than you will ever accomplish in your life.
Bush withdrew the U.S. from the U.S. - CCCP ABM treaty. That's Conservative, and it is certainly more Conservative than your grand idea to fight Congress over the budget instead of paying attention to our national defense.
Bush got Congress, including a Democratic Senate, to fund our national missile defense system over their own objections to it. That's not only Conservative, that's some major political manuevering.
Bush got one tax cut for increased depreciation for businesses as well as another tax cut for lower income taxes for individuals passed. That's Conservative, and that's far more than Clinton/Gore/Buchanon/Phillips/Nader/Brown ever delivered.
Is current Congressional spending unConstitutional, as you claim above? No.
Are Americans and foreign visitors under greater scrutiny now under Bush than before, as you claim above? Yes. In case you haven't heard, we're in the middle of a War on Terror. Gee, you emails might be read by a software program in Quantico now. Oh, how I feel sorry for you.
Not.
