[quote=Anonymous]The way I see it (and please enlighten me if I am incorrect), Clinton was a fiscal conservative. He balanced the budget and reduced the deficit. He also cut welfare (socially conservative?). Bush #2 acted as a socialist by taking the "surplus" (38 billion, I think?) that Clinton left and redistributing it to the people in the form of $300 (-ish?) tax rebates to "stimulate the economy". So please tell me- which party is conservative? It seems to me that the Republican party has become the party of religion, not the conservative party. [/quote]
