President Bush was not as conservative as Reagan was. Its easy for me to say I don't think Reagan would have voted for tarp or a few of the other social medicare programs President Bush did. We never really will know but Reagan was one who spoke more of individual freedoms. I think President Bush believed in that sort of thing too but probably not as much as Reagan. Big government didn't seem to bother President Bush much though he seemed to want a different kind of big government than a liberal would want.

Bush was right of center not even a moderate like John McCain. Reagan was more conservative than either President Bush or McCain.

Spending allot on our military and weapons and spending allot on TARP and medicare are very different.

Or perhaps..... President Bush was one of those pro life liberals we were arguing about earlier

[QUOTE="Pandora, post: 145338, member: 1040"] President Bush was not as conservative as Reagan was. Its easy for me to say I don't think Reagan would have voted for tarp or a few of the other social medicare programs President Bush did. We never really will know but Reagan was one who spoke more of individual freedoms. I think President Bush believed in that sort of thing too but probably not as much as Reagan. Big government didn't seem to bother President Bush much though he seemed to want a different kind of big government than a liberal would want. Bush was right of center not even a moderate like John McCain. Reagan was more conservative than either President Bush or McCain. Spending allot on our military and weapons and spending allot on TARP and medicare are very different. Or perhaps.....
