Bush has the formula backwards. He gives the 'Rats 80% of what they want.

President Bush needs to brush up on his math skills :-)

GW Bush is not 2/3 of a conservative. He is 3/3 of a compassionate conservative, which is exactly what he always said he was.

Y'all don't even know what a conservative is. In fact, you can't know because it is not an area of moral absolutism. Its definition changes.

Case in point, abortion. The conservative candidate of the year 1840 did not have abortion even on his radar screen. It was not a conservative issue.

Social Security and what to do about its funding issues in an environment of an aged baby boom is another issue that didn't even exist 100 yrs ago.

Conservatism is not static. It can't be.

Conservatism is supposed to be the advocacy of slow, stodgy change. Liberalsim is supposed to be the advocacy of fast, reckless change. In neither case is zero change recommended.
