I hear what you are saying and I don't disagree with you about Bush. I think the man has made horrible decisions, to put it mildly.

In my use of the term character, I was removing the concept of "good" from the term. In other words, I was intending to mean that he doesn't stray from his beliefs regardless of the politics surrounding those beliefs. He has the "character", or depth of belief, do remain consistent and immotable, albeit wacked. I see the results he's accomplished and his ability to out-fight the Dems in Congress as a result of his depth and strength of perspective then contrast that to the seeming lack thereof displayed by those very same Dem. I walk away curious yet unknowing the ways of our Dems and, now, fear our nominee may be the same.
