Wasn't Bush A History Major (BA)?

[ThomWV]

Does he have no sense of how he will be treated by historians. Does he have no sense of shame? He has to know that he's going to rank right down there with Mussolini - and in fact that would be the best comparison I could come up with.

1. Answer, No he has no shame and no brain nt

2. Why should he worry, he's going to control the history books, too!

Why wouldn't he? He's already got NPR, working on PBS and the internet. That's the way they think, and that's why I get upset with Dems who are passively waiting for history to judge him (you clearly weren't doing this, but in other posts I've seen this)

3. And those who do not learn from the mistakes of history ...

... are doomed to repeat them.

Bush has been concerned with his 'legacy' since day one. Well, his legacy is now etched in stone forever:

War, famine, pestilence and death.

4. don't you remember when

he said he didn't care how history would assess him because we'd all be dead? he's a total idiot.

5. No, we have our first "cheerleader" president. n/t

6. I suspect that others did his work for him.

How else can we explain how a man can spend so many years in three of the most exclusive schools in the world and emerge every bit as ignorant as he would have if he had spent those same years in a cave in Borneo?

[Nay]

7. Yes, but he was a LEGACY admission to all those schools, which

means he was a lazy rich kid who was given C's whether he did the work, bought the work from a poor kid, or just intimidated his teachers cuz dad was CIA, gramps was a bigwig, etc.

I have tried to explain to a few Bush worshippers what a legacy admission is, but they don't believe it. Anyone who "got a degree" has to be "a SMART MAN!" I spent many an hour in college classes with such dimwits, and it pisses me off that they even were allowed to graduate, much less one of them becoming president, ferchrissakes.

8. I thought Bush's dad bought him his degree!

9. It painfully obvious he didn't learn anything if he was..........

I don't think he got much past 1930's Nazi Germany.

Bush family dinner table as "the good old days."
