"Mr. Bush's loyalty to his father in the Yale years was filial rather than political. For a son of a politician, Mr. Bush was remarkably oblivious to current affairs.

Other undergraduates at the time -- like (future governor) George E. Pataki, (future senator) John Kerry, and (future federal judge) J. Harvie Wilkinson III -- were active in campus politics, while at the law school (future senator) Joseph I. Lieberman was beginning his own political career. But Mr. Bush was the opposite kind of student: he never joined the Yale Political Union and rarely spent time talking about civil rights, the Vietnam War (http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/october/20/newsid_3153000/3153144.stm) or other upheavals of the day.

"Gosh, I can't remember," Mr. Bush said, struggling to recall whether he had discussed these issues with his father. "I mean, I'm confident we discussed issues. I just can't remember any long sessions (http://www.nytimes.com/library/politics/camp/061900wh-bush.html) sitting around."

In short, while some students took to the barricades, Mr. Bush took to the bar."

"They also remember Bush's stories about how the New Haven, Connecticut police always let him go, after he told them his name, when they stopped him "all the time" for driving drunk as a student at Yale in the late 1960s. Bush told this story to others working in the campaign "what seemed like a hundred times," says Red Blount's nephew C. Murphy Archibald, now an attorney in Charlotte, N.C., who also worked on the Blount campaign and said he had "vivid memories" of that time.

"He would laugh uproariously as though there was something funny about this. To me, that was pretty memorable, because here he is, a number of years out of college, talking about this to people he doesn't know," Archibald said. "He just struck me as a guy who really had an idea of himself as very much a child of privilege, that he wasn't operating by the same rules (http://www.axisoflogic.com/cgi-bin/exec/view.pl?archive=43&num=5089)."

Compelling, thought-provoking stuff.
Thanks for posting that, Mr. Shaman.

Please keep it up.
We just don't seem to get enough anti-Bush, anti-war, anti-Cheney material around here, so you are like a breath of fresh air to us here on allforums.net.

Thank you for all that you do, and may God bless you!!

yep, you'll need a bunch of history-challenged 20-somethings for a throw back to '92.

Yeah.....right.....the Clinton's will do a 180....just to see what happens. :rolleyes:

I don't expect HillBilly to do a 180. If voters are stupid enought to elect them, again, I expect they'll steal what they missed the first time.

Sarcasm? No you silly fellow, I was paying you a genuine compliment.

The other monomaniacal anti-war, anti-Bush jokers around here can only resort to weak, anemic stabs at personal opinion and independent thought.
YOU on the other hand bring us fresh and dynamic cut-and-pastes from other websites, and it is both stimulating and head-turning.

You promise the goods, and then more importantly, you deliver the goods.

My hat is off to you. Please keep up the good work, and I wish only the best for you and your friends the Clintons.

2008 becomes the new 1992? We can only hope!! I can’t wait to break out my Flock Of Seagulls records, and to wear my parachute pants!

:hula:

"Parachute pants" in 1992?

They went out of style in 1986.

You were listening to "records" in 1992?

I had upgraded all my cassette tapes to CDs by 1990.

I had upgraded all my records to cassette tapes by 1984.

:hula:

Who's pro-Bush here?

I see that of late threads are popping up,personally attacking George Bush,thats it,just attacking him.

I think it would be much better to add some input as to why his policies are flawed.

C'mon guys,a bit of effort please.

are old enough to remember records and parachute pants?

http://www.awolbush.com/whoserved.html

Exactly, what was it they stole, the first-time-around?


Why, nothing.

Nothing at ALL!

EVERYONE knows it's only rabid right wing HITLER JUGEND who DARE to accuse Empress Madame and Chubby Bills of---of....thievery!!

Besides, the few li'l doo-dads they accidentally lifted from the White House for their own personal fat farm don't amount to much anyhoo---stuff like Washington's sword, Lincoln's stovepipe, and James Monroe's powdered wig.

And exactly what would Bills be doing wearing a wig anyway?
EVERYONE knows it was his MOTHER who was bald as an egg as well as being fat and a drunk.

Laws, these right wing nincompoops need to get a LIFE!!!!!

are old enough to remember records and parachute pants?

Guilty as charged.

Dang it.
Next you're going to tell me that my faux-denim patchwork polyester leisure suit is not fit for business wear.

Can't have a damn thing!!

Dangit! They are so "roomy" and comfortable (especially when I dance around the house to Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer on my Sony cassette walkman). Plus, they go so well with my mullet.

So noted.

I'm thinkin' they still call it Debate.....and, some times actually feels like it.....until the (expected) response is all-too-recognizable Rove-rhetoric. :rolleyes:

Rove rhetoric. Interesting term.

You seem like a pretty sharp fellow, except for all the angry tirades and such.
How is it you have fallen into such a frustrated and antagonistic situation in your life?

Were you a fairly calm and even tempered chap before the war started, and only since then become an internet champion for impeaching the likes of Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney?
Or has it always been like this for you?

Genuinely curious.

How do you put album-art on an MP3-file. :(

"College life was good to George, what he saw of it. A college career usually occupies four years. But we know that George Bush is a rapidly moving man. Thus he was pleased with the special arrangement made for veterans, by which Yale allowed him to get his degree after attending classes for only two and a half years.

Bush and his friends remember it all fondly, as representatives of the Fashionable Set (http://www.tarpley.net/bush7.htm): "Members of class have since sighed with nostalgia for those days of the late 1940s.... Trolley cars still rumbled along the New Haven streets. [B]On autumn afternoons they would be crowded with students going out to football games at the Yale Bowl, scattering pennies along the way and shouting `scramble' to the street kids diving for them."

Exactly, what was it they stole, the first-time-around?

Why, nothing.

Nothing at ALL!

"When Karl Rove (http://www.counterpunch.org/madsen1101.html) concocted the bogus story about Clinton "vandalizing" the White House, every news outlet in the nation played it up. But what happened when Rove's lie was exposed by the GAO/GSA?"

:p

Rove rhetoric. Interesting term.

You seem like a pretty sharp fellow, except for all the angry tirades and such.

How is it you have fallen into such a frustrated and antagonistic situation in your life?
I guess I haven't (yet) developed any fondness for the typical conservative-diet (http://www.salon.com/news/1998/04/07news.html).....what they refer-to as typical-politics. :rolleyes:

I see that of late threads are popping up,personally attacking George Bush,thats it,just attacking him.

You'd better take a second look.

I just scanned the top 20 threads on AllForums. There is one thread (The Bush-Presiduncy; "Tempered" By WAR) that "personally attacks" GWB*sh.

FT Stop being so picky

FT Stop being so picky

I'm sorry if you saw it as being 'picky'.

I simply wanted to point out how wrong it was to imply that these boards are chock full of "hate Bush" threads. There are maybe three, all started by the same person.

One has 30 replies, one has 21 and the other has zero.

Big deal.

51 replies -- over half of the from people defending anything and everything that B*sh does-- hardly consitutes some huge campaign of hatred for Mr. B*sh...........

.........although in my view he --due to his actions and his Administration's abysmally failed policies-- would richly deserve any and all expressions of loathing and distrust he might happen to recieve from the People.

I have no problem with posters showing Bush for what he is,lets face it,theres more than enough ammunition to use,my point being,use it.

Fair enough.
