Re: "It appears the Republican Party has drifted far to the left..." So... what was the Bush's fiscal liberalism? It sure wasn't 'conservative' anything ______________________________________ As many have tried to point out the past few years, George W. Bush is not a conservative. Never has been. He talked like one back in 2000, but it didn't last for six months. Then the Republican congress and the republican president went on a "big government" spree that is still just amazing in hindsight...all funded (or unfunded) by deficits, which really means by other nations willing to buy that debt. Some of those nations are not our friends...so what kind of stupidity is that? And yet people still want their medicare drug programs, their fat agricultural subsidies, their bridges to nowhere (Ted Stevens, what a total ass), and no republican said much...McCain tried a few times, on spending, but it didn't hold. Bush's veto pen was nowhere to be seen. Now he dares to talk about fiscal responsibility while still wanting tax cuts as deficits soar and the chance to curb spending was four years ago! Ron Paul...please.
