11. Is this the Bush who stalked his girlfriend or

am I getting this nutty clan confused?

12. IIRC that was Jeb's son Prescott. Pierce is Neil's son. Neil went on Thai sex tour, right?

Or was involved in Savings and Loan Scandals?

13. To paraphrase Dave Barry

"You cannot make this stuff up!"

17. don't know about sex tour but

he
Neil Bush, George & Jeb's brother, definitely was in the S & L scandal
Hope that family's run in politics is about over, hope George P goes away soon

15. I haven't been following this race

Did he lose, just to have an even more rabid member of the Cult win?

I ask as a resident of TX-21, where the vile Lamar Smith retired and was replaced with the even viler Chip Roy.

16. Pierce Bush is first Bush to lose Texas race in over 40 years

The CBS article says P. Bush made several mistakes, not the least of which was getting tagged as a "carpetbagger."

[question everything]
