In the widest sense, conservatism respects the customs and traditions of one's country.
Culturally, Bush advocates torture, spying on americans, militaristic foreign relations, eviscerating the separation power and alienating noncompliant foreign allies.
He is not a cultural conservative b/c those things are not the norm in our traditions and values.
Economically, Bush advocates tax cuts during a time of war and in spite of a crushing debt. His borrow and spend policies have nearly doubled our national debt.
He is not an fiscal conservative b/c those things are new achievements in our country's economic history.
George Bush is a right wing ideologue.
