Why do you try to pass yourself off as a dude?

Born in Connecticut, he was raised in Texas by his multimillionaire, elitist Connecticut Republican parents and some nannies, however he attended high school at the exclusive private eastern prep school, Phillips Andover Academy, as well as Yale and Harvard Universities. I guess he can make a claim to being a Texan -- but the idea that he's a "regular guy" is kinda stretching it -- Regular guys don't have millionaire ex- Presidents for fathers or attend elite eastern prep schools and universities and have Saudi Arabian Princes and businessmen as friends.
The Texas regular guy thing was part of the image making process to garner votes from the very people who are getting screwed by his policies -- the people who say "Good old W, he's just like me"
PS he was not raised on a ranch and never owned a ranch until 2001. There are no cattle on his ranch that I have ever seen and he doesn't know how to ride a horse -- horses probably have an instinctive aversion him, as he did like to torture animals as a child.

Why does he try to pass himself off as a man or even a person at all? He's obviously a blithering idiot who only knows how to be a war-monger. You people voted him in. Enjoy.

I'm still wondering why he is trying to pass himself off as a heterosexual male.

It goes along with the image Karl Rove carved out for him. Rancher clearing brush, airman in flight suit, rescuer on a pile of rubble, flag waving bible thumper. Without Karl, he would just be your average every day AWOL, dry drunk, cheerleading failed oilman. By the way, he was born in Connecticut.

He was raised in Texas starting when he was 3 - teenager. He made his childhood friends in TX, and still like to go there.

Uhmmmm. Because that's where he lives and was raised? Is this another opportunity to bash Bush?

Perhaps because he has had a career in oil in Texas, owned the Rangers, been the Governor and lived most of his life in Texas.
Are liberals so short on bumper sticker slogans that they have to question his state of residence now, you are a bunch of losers.
