Clearly, Bush is not an ideological politican, but he tends to be conservative in his instincts. But there are initiatives which come from his heart, and not from a well-defined political philosophy, which tend to aggrevate conservatives. His "faith-based" initiative, and his application of this to the AIDS initiative in Africa, come to mind. While Bush will not "trangulate," he will continue to lead from the heart, and this will run him afoul of the true-believers on the right.

Bush was probably getting in front of the UN with the AIDS initative in Africa in order to make their future World Tax proposal irrelevant.
People need to stop tunneling when listening to our leaders initatives and start seeing Bush in the two step ahead plan.

His faith-based initiative does not aggrevate me. I think it is a good thing.......IF he does it carefully. There are some dangers in such an initiative as well.
