Why do Republicans insist that the 8 years of George Bush weren't really "conservative"? Every time "conservative" ideology "fails", conservatives complain it wasn't "real" conservatism. They assume that if it didn't "succeed", then it wasn't "conservatism". Don't they understand that conservatism is simply a failed ideology? It will ALWAYS fail, because like ID, it isn't "real".

How is spending more money that anyone in human history then begging banks to help small business defined as a "success"?
This sounds a lot like the Iraq War: the Libruls tried every trick in their playbook to support the Insurgency but now that we won they/re out front taking Victory Laps.
We won? Who won? We sent in two private contractors for every soldier we took out. Get your head out of your arse.
PS. You guys let Bin Ladin get away so you could use him as a boogie man and invade Iraq. Don't call Iraq a victory. You don't get the profits from the oil companies or the defense contractors. You just pay the bill.
Yeah, thankfully Cronkite's dead and you lost your control on the media so you can call the war for the Insurgency all you want the same way Walter called Vietnam for the North after we inflicted one of the worst ass kicking in military history on them, only your fellow Lunatic Fringe Leftists believe you.
Only a commie would be glad Cronkite is dead.
I would rather be dead than red.

Good point. Bush did spend more than anyone in human history and all he had to show for it was a collapsed economy

They are happy that Walter Cronkite is dead and yet celebrate the works of Limbaugh, Coulter, Hannity and Beck
If he said it he sure as hell didn't mean it.
Everyone knows the conservative montra is good in theory. That's why so many middle class Americans get suckered into voting GOP. The GOP talks a good game about being conservative, but they are not. They talk about cutting taxes, but they never do. Maybe a token amount, but they cost the middle class more than they gave us. Only the rich made out on Bush's tax breaks.
They spend more too. And their spending goes to the few, not the many. Their free market ideas raise gas prices on the middle class, healthcare costs on us and lowers our wages.
But as far as spending less and fiscal responsibility? Yea, great ideas. HW Bush raised taxes to help Clinton balance the budget.
Now Obama walked into this mess. And I don't think he has the power to get the private contractors out of Iraq. You do know that we took the troops out but sent double their numbers in private contractors. That's going to go on Obama's deficit. But he didn't get us in that war, and until Obama took over, right wingers wanted to stay 100 years. Remember McCain said that and all the righties defended him?
Bush and the bankers were looting the treasury last year and continue today to do so. I don't think Obama can do anything about that either. THat'll go on his numbers too.
But things are getting better slowly. Obama has done a lot. He hasn't fixed everything yet, but he's battling the sellout blue dog dems and the obstructionist GOP.

If Barack Obama is succeeding, then he must be moving to the center. Such is the abrupt conclusion of one of the wisest, or wiliest, conservative commentators. While Peggy Noonans verdict will rile the propagators of relentless rage on the Right, its actually a clever attempt to rescue them from their own marginalization. Her column seeks to lay the groundwork for future conservative claims that a presidency that succeeds in rescuing the economy, enacting health-care reform, and combating climate change is somehow not a vindication of progressive ideals.
After a year of full blown FDR/Soviet Style Central Planning, after a year of TARP and "Stimulus" spending, after a year of denigrating capitalism and free enterprise, Obama has finally seen the light and admits that Conservatism works; only Conservatism can set the foundation for small businesses to bloom and prosper.
Maybe he was visited by the Spirits of Ronald Reagan, Milton Friedman and Adams Smith last night, who knows? All we can tell is that today he has come to the realization that government spending does not create jobs. In America, that's a job for small businesses!
Welcome Obama! Glad to have you aboard.

The rightwing is now facing a quandry. They have banked everything on an Obama will fail strategy. Now, with Obama showing success on most major fronts, they have to start reshaping Obama and selling his accomplishments as being a result of his assuming right wing philosophies

It is amazing you can breathe and type at the same time... you make mongoloids look like Stephen Fucking Hawking
Bush ran and governed as a moderate... more of a centrist than any of the recent republican presidents.... this is shown by what was signed, what was supported, and what was said..
Conservatism is not a "failed ideology".... on the other hand... things like communism, Marxism, and socialism have been proven to be failed ideologies

Until Obama came along. And all he has to show for it is double digit unemployment because he thinks a country can spend its way out of a recession.

Based on what, one story about a Peggy Noonan column?
LOL
Good luck with that.
