3. and we know what kind of a grifter and con artist he is.

5. George bush** owes his buddies and handlers big time. And he's
always been one to pay his debts with other peoples lives (literally and figuratively) and other people's money.

6. I checked "Other"
Going back to his Yale (Legacy Admission) college term papers and his Harvard B School (Legacy Admission) term paper -- there is a long paper trail --- he has a visceral hatred of FDR and the New Deal.

No reason - it's in his DNA.

FDR and the New Deal were a successful attack on the rights and privileges of his class (class in the Indian caste sense).

He buys into the Heritage Foundation and CATO Institute line completely.

9. I agree with you on this!
They took it for the Iraq war, and now they want to dismantle Social Security to cover up the theft.

10. Gee, I have pondered that question to many times ..
.." * " has bankrupted everything he has every touched. He, himself, his conscience, morality, etc, is bankrupt in every sense of the word. He bankrupted Texas when he was Governor (shudder). He is a "soul stealer" - and he is trying to steal the soul of our country... I just wish I knew why ... if there is even a reason.
