When shrub is out do you think any business or foundation will hire him
After shrub is out of office in January '05, do you think there is any business or foundation that will put him on their board. I mean given his track record of driving every company he has touched into the ground, who would hire him?

2. Yes, of course...

an ex-president on the board is sort of oh-so-chic for a lot of corporations, check into how many Poppy George is involved in.

3. He'll end up in the Carlyle group with his father
and the other President's Club members there. Believe me, he won't have to even update his resume.

9. The REAL difference between conservative and liberal politicians.
George H. W. Bush currently works within a powerful business group, often dealing with nations hostile to their own citizens, in an effort to increase his personal wealth.

Jimmy Carter mediates peace negotiations and helps build homes for low income families.

7. Depends as what.
Without his staff he's worthless as a spokesman. He's botched every company he ever ran. . . maybe as a figurehead of some kind. Maybe his dad will give him another job.

I've got a great job for him, actually. He'd get a good health care program, and even free room and board. And all he has to do is make license plates. For 25 years or so.

8. People will pay him 150K for a half hour speech
"You got and edecate people that if your food's family is poor it's because you weren't being learned in school ... see, Amurica stands for freedom, and my administration misappropriated that. Tax relief for everyone but the te'rists was my key."

14. No a five minute speech
with 25 minutes of stumbling and looking stupid.

Is he even capable of a 30 minute speech?

Oh Yea, cronyism is alive and well. If nothing else he's 'connected'

24. Nothing but jail will harm Shrubs prospects after November
even then, he would still come out of prison with prospects.

None among the cabal will allow Shrub to flounder once out of office..and his mother certainly won't allow it.

Shrub's going to be fine...he always was going to be. He bankrupted America...not his own pockets.

D'ya think they'd go for having him? Do they owe BushCo any favors?

33. he'll have hundreds of board memberships that pay him to do nothing
and that is about all he can do.

Oil companies, drug companies, look at who owes him for the graft in his administration and you'll get a good picture of who will make him even richer for even less of his incompetent effort.

34. Of course they will. He is one of the mega-rich and he has made
his buddies tons of money with these bogus wars and the bogus 'terrorism' scam. That was his entire role and he did a great job for them. He's set for life.

Unless we throw him in jail where he belongs.
