You CLEVER girl! with your razor sharp incisive mind...that's a really good observation. No matter what those Bushes do, they always find a way to stick it to the American taxpayer. Wow!

It looks like Barbara Bush is an investor in her son's company! Ouch. From TPM: talkingpointsmemo.com Back on the question of how Barbara Bush donated money for Katrina aid and 'earmarked' part of it for the purchase of educational software produced by Ignite!, the company her son, Neil Bush, to bag money from international potentates, tycoons and crooks. Taxprof's got a post on a subject I've been curious about. George and Barbara Bush -- like a lot of other folks investment for non-economic reasons -- are actually investors in Ignite! So how is it exactly you get away with making a tax subsidized contribution that you stipulate must be used to purchase products from a company in which you are a partial owner? Isn't that a scam of some sort?
