With the race to succeed him reaching a critical juncture, President Bush this morning began rallying the Republican base around its presumptive nominee, John McCain, and in the process tried to define his own legacy for the general election campaign to come. In a speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, Bush offered an implicit endorsement of McCain's bona fides as a true conservative in the face of deep skepticism on the right. Although he did not mention McCain by name, the president said whoever ends up being the Republican nominee will represent conservative values. Keep reading. Read more about the events yesterday at the CPAC conference.
Poster Comment: McInSane was loyal to the party (not necessarily the country), he paid his dues, and it's his turn (to lose). This endorsement is the kiss of death.

How the hell would he know what a true conservative is. What he read about it? LOL
Bush thinks that he's a "conservative" because TV and talk radio say that he is. Since Bush and McCain agree on just about everything, McCain must be "conservative" too. Not that the word means much today.
Oh, monkey see. Monkey do
