This is sure to get a fun response, but on the whole Bush may be more liberal than Clinton. Think about it:
1. Under Clinton we had surpluses; under Bush we have deficits.
2. Under Clinton, we had a reduction in an entitlement program (i.e., welfare). Under Bush we have an extremely expensive new entitlement program.
3. Under Clinton we had NAFTA and other free trade initiatives. Under Bush we have new tariffs.
4. Both Clinton and Bush subscribe to the "mend it don't end it" line on affirmative action.
5. Both Clinton and Bush were against gay marriage.
6. Bush has increased gross spending for, and has essentially federalized, education.
7. Under Bush we have extensive new regulation of the securities markets.
I could go on, but that should be enough to trigger the wave.

Is this using the liberal test that you posted a few weeks ago?
