The Acorn Doesn't Fall Far from the Bush

Sure a dad wants the best for his kids, but George Herbert Walker Bush's comments on Larry King, Where Live Means No Follow-Ups were pretty ridiculous today. It seems 41 not only wants a 43 but also a 44, and is pushing Jeb to run for president. GHW said, in his lovable subject-less syntax the nation has come to miss, I'm sure, "This guy's smart, big and strong. Makes the decisions. And you know, not without controversy, but he's led that state."

So it seems choosing a president is sort of like choosing a quarterback--let's just go for the guy who's smart, big and strong and led state.

Or we can be sure the president/quarterback is a triple threat who can punt, pass and kick (not that kind of pass, Mr. Clinton), turn on the vibrating machine (not that kind of vibrating, either), and watch the world go crazy--that's geo-politics!
