Neil Bush's family values

[CatWoman]

Two years ago, when Neil Bush and his mother, the former first lady Barbara Bush, were featured guests at a $1,000-a-table fundraiser for the Western Heights School District in Oklahoma City, proceeds from the event were specifically earmarked for the purchase of products from Neil's company, Ignite! Learning. Late last year, when Neil's mom agreed to make a contribution to a Hurricane Katrina relief foundation for those victims that had relocated to Texas, she stipulated that her donation had to be used by local schools to acquire Ignite products.

It must have been a long time ago that Neil Bush, the son of Bush 41 and the younger brother of Bush 43, discovered that the key to unlocking the entrepreneurial vault was to take full advantage of the Family. While entrepreneurial nepotism is as American as apple pie and Thomas Kinkade paintings, the Bush Family has made it a science.

Over the past two decades, while Neil Bush has made impressive amounts of money in all sorts of interesting business deals, he has always seemed like the kid who was caught red-handed throwing chalk at the teacher, got sent to the principal and yet returned to the classroom unscathed.

These days, with the help of the Saudi Royal Family, a former junk bond dealer, a Russian mobster, the Rev. Sum Myung Moon, and mom and dad, family string-pulling is again paying off.

1. He's directly responsible for devastating the housing prices here in Denver

That was back in the Silverado Savings & Loan days. It hurt our local economy when they overvalued property values so his friends could borrow against their properties. All properties then became overvalued. Then they walked away from the loans and Silverado failed. And then it all came tumbling down around here. One by one the banks went under. Such a mess.

"have I told you yet how much I hate.....

5. They didn't

help the Houston economy either. That's why I keep telling folks the current down numbers in housing are just the tip of the iceberg. I think we both have the same tee shirt.

6. And they love to say that they're peple of the west

Talk about pooping in your own nest. They stole from their own neighbors.

I was born and raised in NYC. But that family is nothing but a pack of Northeastern carpetbaggers. Yipes, did I really say that?! :rofl:

3. BushCo is a crime family in every sense of the word

In fact, they probably have more blood on their hands than the Gambino, Genovese, Bonnano, Colombo, Lucchese, and Soprano families combined.
