Bottum's up
Joseph Bottum, that is. Conservatives are right to be disappointed with the Bush Administration, Bottum writes:
Under President Bush, conservatism has won only in the sense of not losing as quickly as it would have under a President Gore or a President Kerry....Conservatives voted for George W. Bush in 2000 because they expected him to be the opposite of Bill Clinton--and so, unfortunately, he has proved. Where Mr. Clinton seemed a man of enormous political competence and no principle, Mr. Bush has been a man of principle and very little political competence."
(H/T: Gadsden Flag, who notes that for all Bottum says about Bush's disappointing record on conservatism, he manages to omit any mention of immigration reform, which polls as the "most important issue" facing America as noted, e.g., here._
