Asked about the antipathy aroused by his stimulus bill, health reform plans, and takeover of ailing banks, the president revealed that the stinging domestic criticism has bemused other politicians whose politics are ostensibly to the Right of his.

"I can't tell you how many foreign leaders, who are heads of centre-right governments, say to me 'I don't understand why people would call you socialist, in my country you would be considered a conservative'," Mr Obama told CNN.

Actually, this fits in somewhat with Mark Steyn’s comment, that where socialism is introduced, its a one-way ticket and conservatives in those countries are reduced to promising to administer it more effeciently than the other guys.

In most socialist countries, which is to say most of Europe, conservatism is not only different in kind from American “classic liberal” conservatism but is also a pale bloodless imitation even of itself.

Barack is a conservative - that is rich. He is so far left of GWB that he has fallen off the cliff, and I would refer to GWB as a conservative only on some issues.
