How many times are you going to start a thread and fill it with content from some Rush Limbag site, lead everyone to believe that you wrote it, then brag about the impressive content you bring to the table. It is too funny. From: rushonline.com This idea grows from a basic EIB Maxim, namely that some clown gets elected to office and suddenly he's an expert on everything. Well, what about the economy? Dub has a Harvard MBA and private sector experience up the wazoo. [what a coincidental choice of expression!] What does Daschle have? He has a political science degree and a life where he never worked for anything but the government. Look at these points: Bush: Bachelor of History from Yale. Daschle: Bachelor of Political Science from South Dakota State U. Bush: a Masters Degree in Business Administration from Harvard Daschle: no post-graduate degree in economics or anything else Bush: 11 years as an owner and an employee in private business Daschle: no private-sector experience. Never owned, never started, a business Bush: 5 years as partner in revitalizing MLB franchise, the Texas Rangers. Daschle: 5 years on the public payroll as an aide to an ultra-liberal senator. Bush: Six years as chief executive of the 2nd-largest state of 28 million people Daschle: Fifteen years, one of three statewide representatives of the 46th-largest state of 696,004 people Bush: Texas is the size of 36 New Jerseys and has a 1,254-mile international trade border. Daschle: South Dakota is the size of ten New Jerseys and has no international trade border. Bush: the gross state product of Texas ranks third of the 50 states. Daschle: the gross state product of South Dakota ranks 47th of the 50 states. Bush: In 2000, citizens of Texas earned $1,729 more per capita than those in South Dakota and had $1,061 more in disposable income. Daschle: In 2000, SD ranked ten states behind Texas in per capita income.* Bush: Texans earned third place in total personal income for the year 2000. Daschle: South Dakota earned 47th place in TPI for the year 2000.* Bush: In 1999, a Site Selection's corporate survey ranked Texas' business climate #1 of all states. Daschle: In 1999, it ranked South Dakota's business climate #22 of all states. Now, these are all on a totally serious vein, as proposed by Dean here at RushLimbaugh.com, but let's look at the personal too. Bush: stands six feet tall. Daschle: Five foot six inches- in heels. Bush: Big feet, big hands. Daschle: Small feet, small hands. (You do the math.) Bush: 32 teeth. Daschle: Four rows of 40-teeth each, like a shark. Daschle: Banned from Victoria's Secret. Bush: Not. I wanted to throw that one in, and have fun with their heads out there. But these are amazing facts, are they not? You never, ever hear a word about President Bush having a Harvard MBA, do you? You never hear about him having a degree in history from Yale. It's taken as conventional wisdom that Mr. Bush is a boob, a frat boy, and he just slid through life on his name. It's not true, folks. Bush has experience on the economy - both in the classroom and in the real world - while all Daschle has ever studied and done involves winning elections in a small, relatively business-unfriendly state. Who can we trust to know how nations revive economies and recessions and create jobs? The answer is crystal clear. From: "Mona Losh"
