I'd like to point out that Bush is no conservative.

Conservatives believe in small government and fiscal responsibility. Bush believes in big spending and reckless fiscal policies.

Conservatives look for ways to avoid foreign entanglements; Bush wants to bring "Democracy" to the World.

Conservatives believe in individual liberties. Bush wants to deny habeas corpus to American citizens on his orders.

Consider this: "I gave my first speech on the Senate floor in February 1997 in support of the balanced-budget amendment. Republicans used to believe in balanced budgets. Republicans used to believe in fiscal responsibility, limited international entanglements and limited government. We have lost our way." Senator Chuck Hagel (R-Neb), November 2003 Op-Ed piece.

As a lifelong Republican and former delegate to the RNC, I consider Bush and his supporters immoral. IMO, the GOP has lost its way.
