Did Mrs. Alito cry when she learned of Poppy Bush crying over the end of Saint Jeb's reign?

[Anthony Soprano]

That's the way I like to start my day...a lecture from Poppy Bush on what it takes to be a man.

First President Bush sobs while talking of Jeb
Chokes up over Florida governor's ability to handle victory and defeat

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Former President George H.W. Bush broke down in tears as he cited his son, Gov. Jeb Bush, as an example of leadership.

Bush was addressing lawmakers, his son's top administrators, and state workers gathered in the House chamber Monday for the last of the governor's leadership forums.

He said he was proud of how his son handled losing the 1994 governor's race to popular incumbent Democrat Lawton Chiles, and vaguely referred to dirty tricks in the campaign. "He didn't whine about it. He didn't complain," the former president said before choking up. As he tried to continue, he let out a sob and put a handkerchief to his face. When he spoke again, his words were broken up by pauses as he tried to regain composure.

"A true measure of a man is how you handle victory and how you handle defeat, so in '94 Floridians chose to rehire the governor. They took note of his worthy opponent, who showed with not only words but with actions what decency he had," Bush said before again sobbing.



There, there Mrs. Alito...everything's gonna be A-OK.

1. Which Son Is He Actually Crying Over?

Any and all of them, probably. What a bunch of losers.

2. I'd cry, too, if I were responsible for spawning George, Jeb, and Neil.

3. Don't forget Marvin!

From 911Encyclopedia:

One of the brothers of President Bush. Marvin Bush tries to work as an independent businessman. His declared holdings are at Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. and HCC Insurance Holdings Inc. Source: http://biz.yahoo.com/t/02/161.html

Marvin Bush was involved in some ENRON-transactions, together with his brother Neil. He was a principal at Securacom, now named Stratesec, Inc., a company that provided security at the World Trade Center, Washington D.C.'s Dulles International Airport and United Airlines between 1995 and 2001. Securacom was backed by a private Kuwaiti-American investment firm whose records were not open to full public disclosure. http://www.populist.com/03.02.burns.html

Bush is no longer on the board. Other members are Bruce Mones and Mishal al Sabah. http://biz.yahoo.com/t/67/13.html

5. Oh, I'm aware of Marvin.

Marvin has managed to keep a much lower profile than the Three Stooges. He's probably just as evil, but it's harder to find documentation of it.

And then there's sister Dorothy who married into the very wealthy and powerful Koch family. She is probably content to enjoy the rewards of evil without actually trying to pull the strings herself.

"I got a mandate & I intend to spend it!"
