Default Re: Is Bush conservative?

Pre 9/11 most conservatives, and myself, took a no foriegn entanglement foriegn policy viewpoint. That was the stance Bush ran on in 2000.

Whether 9/11 has caused a re-alingment of conservative idealogy as related to foriegn involvement is another question entirely. However, pre-9/11 conservative idealogy would clearly frown upon foriegn involvement, hence the elder Bush's decision not to invade Iraq.
