He's just throwing us a few "nuggets", but, in the final analysis, this guy is a democrat dressed as a republican pretending to be a conservative while embracing the leftist liberal agenda. He's even not following the bush doctrine relative to countries that harbour terrorists.

I think you are right about countries that harbor terrorists. We are probably harboring more dangerous terrorists than any other country on the globe and being ever so 'tolerant' toward them.

here's where we would disagree. I would say that the nuggets are the liberal things he has done. On Most of the big issues (missle defense, tax cuts, conservative judges, etc) He's on our side and the rats are on the other. The only important thing that Bush backtracked on was CFR.

My hot button is people who take the Either/Or view. Either Bush is very conservative, Or he is very liberal. We need to view philosophy as a percentage. No one is 100 percent conservative or liberal. Even Ronald Reagan ignored some conservative issues, and compromised on others (he agreed to two tax increases, in exchange for spending cuts.)

I never expected Bush to be 100 percentage conservative. I was expecting 70 to 80 percent. Right now, with the election plan of denying the democrats their issues. I would rate Bush at around 50 percent. And to be perfectly frank, it is far too soon to tell what type of president he will be. It takes time to judge the impact of a presidency.
