Is Bush one of the most Liberal presidents ever? See Richard Cohen's article
at the Wash Post or at Real Clear Politics?

Summary of Article: Bush is liberal because:

1) Focus on Education -- No child left behind
2) Diversity in adminstration -- condi, powell, paige, gonzalez
3) Iraq - liberting people of Iraq from dictator

cohen concedes that the Bushco is completely incompetent. But that Bush's mindset/heart is a liberal one.

2. Cohen needs some serious rehab, and he needs it now.
That's not the work of a rational mind.

3. Cohen's Confusing Liberal With Libertine
I tried to read that article, but they kept insisting I had to sign up, which I already was, and wouldn't accept my password.....very suspicious.

7. Counter point
Summary of Article: Bush is conservative because:

1) Focus on Education -- Want's I.D. taught in school
2) Diversity in adminstration -- Hires only like minded people regardless of merit
3) Iraq - liberting people of there life so he won't look bad in the history books.

9. Wasn't Gingrich pushing that Meme? Seems Cohen is still on the dole
from his Repug Masters. Course it could have been a NeoCon that said that...since Cohen is known to have worked with them also. :eyes:
