Yes I know, Bush on immgration issues at least leans libertarian, very similar to the Wall St. Journal. It's also true the vast majority of conservatives, while supporting him overall disagree with his immigration policies.

It's also true the vast majority of conservatives, while supporting him overall disagree with his immigration policies.But they agree with the biggest expansion of an entitlement program since LBJ? They agree with his signing the repeal of the first amendment? They agree with his declaration on 7-23-04 that " I believe that's the role of the federal government, to help people"?
Is that what "conservatives" believe?

"Leaning" libertarian isn't "being" libertarian. Bush's purposed guest worker program is just a not particularly clever way to funnel welfare to Mexico. Not libertarian at all. No one gets a handout under a libertarian system.
No one...
