Bush ran 3 businesses into the ground, before Daddy got him a gig with the Texas Rangers. He made well over a million after condemning private property and having the taxpayers build him a new stadium.

You've got it partner! That's like a person complaining that some company has given them employment. I'll do you one better. Check out what the salary for U.S. president was when Clinton was in office, then look at what Bush got the very month after he took office. His salary "doubled" that of Clinton's.
And the tax "BREAKS" he gave to the 11% of the top money earners in the U.S. didn't come from out of nowhere. They came from stripping other programs from veterans and elderly. He's a man with "REAL HEART". So are his fascist supporters.

Thanks for posting a question that is completely unsupported by facts.
When he was in the oil business, the price of oil from OPEC was very low, and many oil firms, especially in Texas failed.
And it wasn't his father who got him the gig with the Rangers. And why condemn Bush for having taxpayers pay for the new stadium? That wasn't his decision - it was the decision of the politicians in office at the time.
Look, Bush has done plenty that can be validly criticized, and has done plenty where people can honestly debate and disagree, but this is just crap.

Hyperbole makes a weak argument. Can you document what you've claimed?
To move on -- money belongs to the taxpayers, not the government. Assuming you are a taxpayer like I am, I would hope you'd be glad someone at the top has the integrity and principles to help you look out for YOUR money.

I'll get a thumbs down for this but your incorrect. All the bushes have made most of there money in Oil. He needs to complain about taxes because the people in this country are. There way to high. I'm very Pro Military having served but It kills me to see all the Billions of Dollars we're spending in Iraq of tax payers money
and on the other hand Medicade?social Security are on the verge of going belly up.

Must have been a real !@#$% hole in that location before he helped it out. What do you want in America, slums? People are out there investing in things and make money. If you are not one of them, get over it! Be glad that they use their influence to try and make things better for all of us and cross pollinate our ideas! Find a place you can rest with the energy you have to make a better life here. Offer up your plan.

That new stadium funnels millions and millions into the local economy, employs over 200 people full time with wages and benefits to die for, and gives us Texans a team to root for. GOOOOOOOOOOOOO Rangers.

It's called pandering. Tell the people what they want to hear whether true or not.
