If you actually look at a lot of us conservatives we dont support him in everything. In almost all of his social changes (gay marriage, etc) I oppose him. What I dont see is people on the left coming across the isle on topics and admitting when he is right.

If you believe there is some interconnectedness between the fact that you do not support Bush's social policies and a requirement that liberals should therefore admit he was right on some unnamed topic, you are incorrect.
There may indeed be something in Bush's policies that I agree with. However, when it comes to the most important policies, there is nothing I agree with. The war, not even close. Taxes and the economy, polar opposites. Social Security, zero compatibility. I could go on.
Maybe his rather minor disapproval of the Minute Man project - I can agree with him on that, though I would still fault him in that regard for not disapproving of it enough. (And even still, I'm quite confident he only mumored his disapproval to pander for Hispanic votes for the Republican party.)
But I don't see how your disapproval of his social policies requires anyone to agree with any of his policies.
Is the rather minor and few topics for which I might agree with his policies somehow supposed to counter balance the reality that he flat out manipulated America, the UN and the World in order to
start a war?
