Could you please direct me to the "big government domestic policies" from 2005-2008 to which you are referring? Thanks in advance.

Not to mention, giving a scumbag socialist like Obama and the Dems a stronger political hand to play.

What hand are you referring to?
All I remember hearing about is the "president's failed policies" of vetoeing the SCHIP bill leaving millions of children without healthcare, along with millions of adults by not promoting commie healthcare for all.
His failure to mandate enough environazi green energy crap, instead of insisting on drilling here, now!

Then of course President Bush's biggest failed policy, in the eyes of the DemonRATS and Paulites, that of remaining steadfast in the WOT, supporting our troops and our allies, and not abandoning the Iraqis!

MeInsane and all those that forced his selection are the only ones that gave the "scumbag socialist" ineligible, islamofascist, foreign born, communist basturd the People's House.

Conservatives and republicans are two different animals. Hopefully, with the help of Alan Keyes, conservatives will not have to wander in the wilderness. I could care less what happens to the republicans.

Sure can. Ever hear of the Medicare prescription drug program that Bush promoted while a candidate for potus in 2000? Started out as a $150-billion ten year program for the elderly poor. Quickly turned into the largest expansion of the federal bureaucracy since Medicare itself became law under LBJ. Current price tag: one-trillion dollar government entitlement program covering just its first ten years.

How about Bush`s more than doubling of the Dept of Education budget from $57 billion to $118-billion. And lets not forget Bush`s huge increases in non-military discretionary spending.

Btw, the WOT is related to foreign policy, not domestic policy. I supported Bush`s foreign policy, b ut it was his Iraq policy by which he lost his Independent supporters and became mired in the 30% range. If it wasn't for conservative Republicans standing with the President, he would have had even lower support.

McCain was a weak candidate. Choosing Palin as his VP running mate saved McCain from a Goldwater level defeat. But it was Bush43 who did the serious damage to the GOP and help to undermine conservatism. Bush43 is why we have Obama in the WH today.

I see you're a Bush supporter and a Keyes supporter. Now that makes very strange political bedfellows. LOL
