I understand, President Bush has been accused of embracing Socialism. The Republicans plan to pass a resolution against the President proclaiming this very thing. I sure understand, Bush has not been the poster child of conservative values. Matter of fact, the ironic thing is that the Liberal Democrats have hated him for winning his 2 elections, and his only friends were the Republicans. I would expect Liberal Socialism from Obama, but Socialism from Bush was something that takes us by surprise. Seems Obama is not as much of a change agent as he had proclaimed. Bush would have been better off taking a hard stand in conservatism through his 8 years, than trying to reach across the aisle. It does no good, and you get fried for it. Lesson learned.
