You're right, we should just give things to people who don't deserve them.

It is my opinion that to Bush it isn't a matter of "deserved" as much as "entitled".

Bush was entitled to go to Yale because of who his Father was.
Bush was entitled to get into the National Guard during the Vietnam War because of who his Father was.
Bush was entitled to his first company because of who his Father was.
Bush was entitled to be the Governor of Texas because of who his Father was.
And Now Bush is entitled to the White House because of who his Father was.


I respect Bush Sr a great deal, even if I don't agree with everything he said or did.
However, dubya is not entitled to my respect because of his Father and I have yet to see anything of him that would earn my respect. The man was a C student who basicly dropped out of the National Guard and then ran his business into the ground.

At least Kerry went and fought in the war and for that has earned a measure of respect from me.

Just my $.02

Is this something like winning "life's lottery?"

For someone who likes men who prove themselves, why do you like Bush so much?

*edit*

Bah, forget it.

I can only assume y'all never took advantage of what your parents could provide, according to their means.

Just answer the question. Any other time (Kerry, wives' wealth) you rail on people for doing similar things.

Ok.......... I remember criticizing every decision he's made since he joined the military, but I never compiled a "h3 1s s0 ent1tl3d/1 h4t3 r1ch p30pl3" list about him.

So, along which axis/axes of intelligence are you comparing them?

Well, it's been a while, but I remember some comments.

I don't because it aint like Bush is broke. If I was slamming, I was slamming equally.

Was something about how he didn't accomplish anything, and had married into the money.

No memory of that, but I'm done arguing with you about it.
