Bush, Baseball, and the U.S.A.

[Delarage]

We probably knew this already but *I* forgot--the only way Bush made money off of the Texas Rangers was to use his daddy's name to get on the board, build the stadium on seized land, then RAISE WORKING PEOPLE'S TAXES to pay for the stadium. He then sells and pockets $10 million. The worthless, arrogant, lying fuck.

The Frontline show was a vivid reminder of how pathetic, and yet scary, man Bush is. A ruthless campaigner who thinks he was chosen by God to be President. And all the faces from the past....Lee Atwater, Rove, Hughes, Charles Schultz, etc. :puke:

1. Yep.............

his fortune was made on the Taxpayers' dime. I supppose this is just fine with his Conservative supporters though. The hypocrisy of Conservatives is so deep it's ridiculous.

2. Yep, that was the only money he has ever made outside of the

family trustfund, and it was really the money of the citizens of Arlington. When they passed their sales tax increase, I swore not to ever buy anything there again when I lived up in Big D.

3. Privatize the profits; socialize the cost.

It's the Republican way. :shrug:
