That's pretty much what I referenced in a previous post in this thread.
EXCEPT that there is very LITTLE (none?) Conservatism in the Republican
Party, save some of the new faces like Bobby Jindal and Tim Pawlenty.
Bush was NO Conservative, and neither are most of the Republicans in
Congress.  That is why we are in the mess we are now. The Democrats
have become Socialists, and the Republicans have become Democrats.
