First there is the passage of the tax cut and the effort to make it permanent.

You mean the time release tax cut that hasn't begun to kick in, yet?

Then, there is the nomination of excellent judges and the defense of those nominees who are encountering opposition for partisan purposes.

Is he referring to conservative judge (Pickering?) who Bush turned his back on?

President Bush rejected the International Criminal Court.

This one is a moving target. He rejected it rhetorically, but substantially, he is still trying to preserve it. Although, Bush says he won't sign (he doesn't have to Clinton did) it, it is still there waiting for a sympathetic congress.

The President opposed taxpayer-funded embryonic stem cell research.

Initially, the President opposed embryonic stem cell research, but supported adult stem cell research. He didn't keep his promise on this issue.

The Justice Department has supported the correct view of the Second Amendment.

Although, a super majority of Americans support guns in the cockpit the Bush administration ruled no differently than a Gore administration would've.

The President has pushed for energy independence.

He did?

He signed the parsonage tax credit bill and the Born Alive Infant Protection bill, during which, at the signing ceremony, the President made the strongest pro-life statement coming out of the Oval Office in a couple of decades.

This was a huge win for conservatives.

If the squeaky wheel gets the grease, apparently conservatives haven't been vocal enough about their disatisfaction with the President's betrayal.

What is wrong with adult stem cells? And if you want to really find someone to blame for stem cells, try the whiny parents who couldn't accept parts that did not work perfectly and INSISTED that they have their own child, instead of adopting.

There is absolutely nothing morally wrong with using adult stem cells. We can obtain adult stem cells from our own blood and fat.

President Bush compromised when he allowed scientists to use federal funds on embryo stem cell lines already in existence.
