Well, President George Bush is not a good example of a conservative. Unfortunately, he has proved to be a big spender...an economic liberal.

Pay attention dummy, we're talking about Republicans here, not conservatives. Neither of the two major parties are conservative, it's an abstract term as far as their concerned. The discussion here is about "Joe Republican" and "Joe Liberal". Since neither of the current parties are conservative, let's stick to discussing which of the two parties has a better track record in terms of running the country.
