Dubya’s Resume
by Kevin Dangoor
Though some of it’s a stretch, and it’s certainly not out to point out anything positive, this version of George W. Bush’s Resume is a bit scary because of how much of it is true. You can’t blame Bush for things like Worldcom’s accounting in 1999-2001, but you can blame him for many of the other things listed.
A traveler came to the gates of a city, where he saw an old wise man. He asked the man, “Sir, what kind of people inhabit this city?” The old gentleman inquired, “What kind of people live in your home city?” “Decent and kind people”, the traveler replied. “You will by and large find the same kind of people here.”
Another traveler came to the gates of the city, where he saw the old wise man. He asked the man, “Sir, what kind of people inhabit this city?” The old gentleman inquired, “Tell me, what kind of people live in your home city?” “Dispicable and lazy folk, only interested in their own good”, the traveler replied. “I am sad to say you will find this city filled with mostly the same kind”, the old man said.
Interesting. That’s a great little tale. There are many ways I can interpret that quote in this context. (Is it a statement about the author of that resume? About me for linking to it? About Dubya himself?)
Thanks for the comment!
Very interesting things in you site
