I listened to Blitzer interview Donald Trump and they both think
we need another CEO-type for president in 2008. Isn't one bad MBA enough to ruin this country?

1. What prez have we had who's a CEO type
that's been any kind of effective? They weren't referring to shrub, were they? Didn't he damage or destroy everything he ever touched prior to cheating his way into the TX governorship?

3. Clinton was very much in the CEO mode.....
Bush boy is just a figure head...

MBS's aren't all that they are cracked up to be.....

Obviously.....

7. junior has been an absolute failure at anything and everything
he's ever done. I'll say one thing that junior did. When he was governor of Texas he and Karen Hughes, Alberto Gonzales and Karl Rove fooled most everyone.

2. This country is NOT a corporation, for Pete's sake!
A corporation only cares about PROFITS; a country must be governed to ensure decent quality of life for its citizens. The same "skill sets" don't work for a CEO and a real LEADER.

13. That's the response I was looking for! You put my gut feelings
into words. (I go through moments during the day when I am so upset, my language center short-circuits.)

I think Trump lives in a 'House of Cards' ready to collapse at anytime.

5. Another CEO type????
:rofl:

What is that supposed to mean? Another crook with his hand in the cookie jar, expecting a golden parachute after he's impeached?

9. I wouldn't mind a competent CEO
but just because bush bought himself an MBA doesn't mean he can run a successful company. Time and again, he's proved he can't. Arbusto, Harkin... he takes over, siphons the money out for himself and his cronies and leaves it in ruins.

He's following the same pattern with the US.
