I have no idea.
It seems that true conservatives stay away from the republican party and true democrats stay away from their party too.
Maybe that's a hint about our current political situation...
{Edit}
It seems some people don't understand. Bush is a social conservative. VERY SOCIAL conservative. Where he is VERY liberal is in his control of our lives and an advocate of larger government. Think about it. Don't just close your mind, truly think about it.

Well, Clinton was FAR from being a conservative by any means...but Bush certainly has proven himself to be liberal on many issues, such as: illegal immigration, global warming, passing the Patriot Act 1 & 2, issuing Executive Orders to take away our Constitutional rights, etc...
Honestly, I think both parties have become corrupt beyond repair...We need to quit looking so much at a PARTY and focus more on the individuals running...what do they stand for? How have they voted in the past? Not just listening to what they say during the election campaigns and believing it all...they all will lie just to get your vote! But their voting records don't lie! Check them out thoroughly before you decide!
I was an Iowa Republican Delegate for the election yr of 2000 and I was amazed at how many self-proclaimed conservative Republicans at the conventions, tried to convince the rest of us that adopting what amounted to VERY liberal ideas that were (word for word) straight off the Democratic Platform were somehow a "good thing"...
There are only a handful of people left from both sides, who are real patriots and care about where America is headed...
Everyone else (on both sides) is working towards the same New World Order...

More or less true. I wouldn't call him a "liberal" so much as a "statist". He's all about big government....more control here and more intervention overseas. Kind of like a Woodrow Wilson presidency again. What is it with these Ivy League guys?
However, Reagan was the best president since Eisenhower. Sadly, I'd probably have to admit that Clinton would have ranked 2nd, but I choose to believe that this was partly because the Republican congress held him accountable. If only this Democratic congress would hold Bush accountable, maybe we'd all be better off. Instead the Democratic congress has proven themselves to be utterly worthless, and generally supportive of the growth of government power, which is pretty much what I would have expected, and is why I could never have supported Gore or Kerry.

Because thats what the people pulling the strings want. From the trilateral commission the CFR and the Bilderburgers thats what they wanted for a long time. Bush is exactly like Kennedy but he comes up with a southern drawl and says hes from Texas. Hes trying to desroy conservatism & the Republicans so we can all have a librral country & one world government.

Interestingly, I find portions of this I could agree to discuss with a rational person.
But to call Bush a Liberal is to miss the nature of the real problems with Liberal thought.
