Could ANY of the Bush kids make a living without their family?
I just heard a news report on the radio about the TX Dept. of Education buying millions of dollars of SF from a company owned by Neil Bush. The reporter continued on to say that Neil had lead a checkered career, and has earned MOST of his money through contacts known b his family!

Boy, and the Pubs always want to talk about the NE Dem elites????????

1. Yeah, an average living.
The kind of crap they enjoy due to cronyism, though? Hell no.

4. generational
I think it's partially a generational thing. GHW's and Bab's offspring have proved exceptionally dismal.

5. I think you are being kind
I doubt they'd last a day at any job currently held by college kids working their way through school...

7. Cheney's brood, too
They've all lined up at the trough. What was it someone said about George Bush? That he was born on third base and thinks he hit a triple?

15. LOL! Sounds like Ann
Hard to believe Texans chose the idiot son over Ann.

6. If they weren't Bush kids, they might have a work ethic
As it is, they're spoiled brats.

It's hard to say.

9. No, cause their daddy would be in prison for stealing SOMETHING
cause he has stolen so much from so many, including stockholders in his own companies...if he was not of privilege himself, based on his socio-pathological personality...he would be in prison and his babies would be just cheap chicks...even the school teacher twin probably would not have gone to college.

10. Nope ... and I get tired of Thugs saying Dems "hate the rich"
I don't "hate" money -- I just think people ought to WORK for it, and not just sit on their butts and INHERIT it. I have an immense respect for ANYONE who TRULY "pulled himself up by his bootstraps" -- and most of those people remember where they came from and appreciate the value of work -- while I LOATHE people like the Bushistas and Paris Hilton who DEFINE the word "entitlement."

12. I've always thought the chimp would be either in prison or
living in a cardboard box if he wasn't a Bush.

13. Of course they could make a living..
Without his parents, Neil would have emerged as a loan shark, controlling the lower east side of Omaha.

Jeb would have made a decent living after inventing "the corn picker"--a metal device that helps you pull the corn hulls out of your teeth, after eating corn on the cob.

Junior would have sold ties at Nordstroms.

As for the Bush twins---both would have been bartenders at TGIFridays (Loads of flair on those uniforms!).

14. All 3 of Jeb's kids have arrest records...
That cuts down on the degree of employability, doesn't it?

hmmmm???


Oliver North
Gordon Liddy
John Poindexter

Guess not - if you're a Republican

16. Mama Bush wound up on the "worst person in the world list"
a while back when it was learned that the contribution she made to Katrina relief came with the condition that her money had to used to buy products from Neil's company.

17. Nope
and it pisses me off no end that I've got 3 college science degrees, six-plus years of experience, and I can't find a fucking job - but these assholes who have never done anything of worth or legality are rich beyond most people's dreams!

19. "Bush Girls Gone Wild" would probably keep the twins in G&T.
There are lots of porno watching, basement dwelling 40 year old virgins over at freeperville who would hand out $17.95 to see Baby Babs and Jenna the Tongue flash their boobies.

Lauren Bush seems to be a human being. Perhaps she was switched at birth.
