They are slightly milder than the ones taken to exalt Reagan as a conservative standard bearer.
Reagan did veto more. He did not reduce spending more than Bush.
The refusal of Conservatives to celebrate the conservative elements of Bush’s two terms is part of the anti-conservative mindset that dominates are country.
The irrational nostalgia for Reagan [whom I do actually admire greatly], must provoke us to do the hard work of justifying the conservative elements of Bush’s legacy— whatever they may be.
Bush’s final budget proposal would balance the budget by 2012— something he was ahead of schedule to do by 2009 except for the recession. The current Obama budget is radically beyond any of the budgets designed by Bush. pretending that it is all the same is again part of an intrinsic anti conservative mindset which has infected all of us— sadly including too many conservatives.
Reagan was a great president. One of the top five, at least.
Bush, was nothing more and nothing less than a closet liberal. I don't go for the old who are you going to believe me are your lying eyes, BS.
