Jeb is a better man that GW. Good stock is no reason to elect him president. And the whole truth has not been made public about GW's pack of misdeeds. Jeb was the one his parents thought might be president. They never thought GW would do much of anything except enjoy the easy life. That all changed when he was approached 9 years ago to run for Governor. He was in the middle of an easy Texas Rangers part-ownership "job" for which he never even had to go to the office to end up making $14,000,000. GW didn't want to eb Governor. He wanted to be baseball commissioner, but when he was turned down for the job as not experienced enough he decided to go for it against Anne Richards. His backers promised him he'd be very well funded. He was groomed and gosh-darnit he smoozed his way right through. Whenever Anne Richards or the press brought up his terrible business record, insider trading or anything else he'd just deflect and change the subject. Clever man. He had it in him afterall. That is the easy way to the White House. Nice "work" if you can get it.

The first prerequisite for absolution in confession. If Bush wants us to forgive him for his crimes and sins, he should confess to us. If he confesses to me, I'll think about it.
