If we could put some real Republicans in the Senate, instead of Jeffords and McCain, maybe Bush could do more. But it doesn't help when good conservative, Constitution-loving people walk away from the process.

You're assuming he wants to do right in the first place and is being restrained. But he's not trying to do right, and it's not as if he's doing nothing; he's actively destroying the Constitution.

We can't take our marbles and go home when something doesn't go the way we personally would like. We all have to work hard to get more conservatives (or at least mostly conservative Republicans) elected. We need that majority in order to control the committees! Then the President will have a much easier time getting done what he wants done!
