Just about every major part of the healthcare bill that Obama says "Americans want" (20 somethings on their parent's insurance, pre-conditions) Bush vetoed.
He did as much as he could for as long as he could and deserves more credit than he gets from "conservatives".
So you would rather have had the Democrat’s original prescription drug bill before Bush gutted it and made it operate thru the private sector instead of government? And you prefer Ted Kennedy’s original education bill before Bush changed it to include standards for school achievement and teacher merits?

Deb, I’d take W. over any democrat, any day. I also stated in my post, that I am thankful for his appointees to the federal bench (Supreme Court and otherwise).
He did some things I didn’t like. Whether this makes me a “conservative” in others’ eyes or not, I really could not care less.
Back to my original point, Romney, in my view would nominate better justices than Obama...by a long shot.
