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.

What a ridiculous statement to make. Sounds like cheap ad slogan. The funny thing is, given your relentless shilling for Bush, I seriously doubt you would know what “conservative” is if it came up and bit you on the nose. For the most part, the conservative issues you listed that Bush enacted is a pathetic laundry list of trivial, arcane policy decisions that, on balance, are relatively unimportant.

Let's see how Bush has fared on Conservative issues that MATTER.

Conservative Presidents DON’T:

Sign an unconstitutional cynically named campaign finance reform bill that limits free speech, especially after promising not to do so.

Sign a budget-busting, pork-laden farm bill.

Sign a multi-billion dollar Ted Kennedy-NEA “approved” education bill that excludes vouchers.

Approve a federal budget that grows government well in excess of the growth in the economy.

Agree with the environmental wackos that mankind is causing global warming.

Leave our borders unprotected as hundreds of thousand of illegal aliens invade America every year and terrorists that wish to harm America are on the loose.

Pursue amnesty for illegal aliens that rewards them for breaking our laws and makes it easier for terrorists to get green cards.

Ban law enforcement officials from racial profiling in airports—even if a person looks “suspicious”

Refuse to enforce our nation’s immigration laws.

Appoint an Open Borders Libertarian (Ziglar) who admits he doesn’t like the idea of enforcing our nation's immigration laws.

Let Mexican Politicos like Fox openly mettle in our domestic affairs with impunity.

Refuse to round up and deport over 100,000 Muslim immigrants that have been served deportation notices.

Trample on privacy rights by signing a miss-named Patriot Act while still allowing immigration at the SAME RATES from the very nations that brought us 9/11.

Withdrawing the U.S. out of the U.S. - CCCP ABM treaty is "trivial" in your mind?!

Hogwash.

Appointing Ashcroft and writing the Supreme Court to tell them that the official U.S. position is that the Second Amendment protects Individual, not collective, rights to keep and bear arms is "trivial" to you?!

Rubbish. Even Ronald Reagan wasn't so bold as to reverse 70+ years of "collective rights" government policy on the Second Amendment.

Withdrawing from the International Criminal Court, which placed itself ABOVE our own Supreme Court is "trivial" to your mind?!

Ridiculous.

Signing Executive Orders which prevented government agencies from acting as though the Kyoto Treaty on Global Warming had been ratified is "trivial" to you?!

Nonsense. Enforcing that treaty via bureaucratic regulations would have seriously harmed our economy.

Funding our national missile defense system is "trivial" in your world?!

Rubbish.
