about Barbara Bush's donation
According to Josh Marshall's TPM Muckraker at talkingpointsmemo.com,he has list of the people who are investors in Neil Bush's educational software company Ignite! The list includes the people that one would associate with the Bush's,the high and mighty and financially well connected. The last owners,however,are the most problematical. They are George and Barbara Bush. How nice,Bar "what a beautiful mind" Bush gives a donation to charity...to herself,through her son's company. How nice,how noble,how sleazy.:puke: :wtf:

1. Babs is so cheap
I bet she washes the paper plates.

Give? Donate? She does not know what that means.

7. That's a little extreme
Babs would never was paper plates - she'd make the maid wash them.

3. I had a sneaky
suspicion that vile old Babsy was a shareholder in her useless son's company. This comes as no surprise at all.

4. This is actually kind of funny.
I've read that Neil Bush is a big-time loser and money squanderer. We always hear about how Poppy has bailed out George Bush! But Neil has gotten into numerous business "deals". He's ended up costing Mommy and Daddy lots of money because they failed.

Now the Silverado Savings & Loan heist cost taxpayers about $1 billion dollars. But the parents have had their share of "bad debt" heh he he

5. Bushmafia tax theft and money laundering. Old hat. -- But WTF is this?!?
We report. You decide. (Really, I'm not quite believing this one myself. So if someone's got more benign take...)

Looks like Professor Neil's hot new product was named after Biggity Barb Herself. It's called The Cow. When you click on The Cow you get a happy cartoon demo of its magic.

However, if you watch closely (pg. 4 of 7) you might just catch what the kartoon kiddies are being taught.

They appear to be learning about panhandlers, yes beggars (hand out, 5 o'clock shadow, high collar) of all things. And why?

So that they can understand the essence of Economy of Central America!




I wonder if Stevie T. focussed on the heathens who didn't have the moral fiber to stave off decades of violent colonization, carpetbagging capitalists, and World Bank bustouts.

6. When the "No Child Left Behind Act" was passed, Jeb decided
to help all the Florida students pass the FCAT. Seems Ignite just happened to have the materials to help the students.

8. The Relatively Charmed Life of Neil Bush
Despite Silverado and Voodoo, Fortune Still Smiles on the President's Brother

By Peter Carlson
Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, December 28, 2003; Page D01

Ah, it's nice to be Neil Bush.

When you're Neil Bush, rich people from all over the world are eager to invest money in your businesses, even though your businesses have a history of crashing and burning in spectacular fashion.

When you're Neil Bush, you'll be sitting in a hotel room in Thailand or Hong Kong, minding your own business, when suddenly there's a knock at the door. You answer it and a comely woman strolls in and has sex with you
