"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."

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.

The same perpetual whiners complained about similar garbage at the end of Reagan's second term.

Of course if Bush had signed onto Kyoto, you can bet this issue would not be "trivial" to anyone.
The reason they call it "trivial" now is obviously because they don't want to give Bush credit for anything and want to minimize his accomplishments.
Their agenda has forced them to take these intellectually dishonest positions.

Same response as above.
Anybody in their right mind knows these are extremely significant issues.
And Bush has done the right thing.

You apparently glossed over where I prefaced "trivial" with "For the Most Part". I do consider Bush's axing of the Kyoto Treaty to be a VERY significant and positive action. BTW, do you have any response to points I made showing how many times Mr. Bush has strayed off the conservative ranch?
