Who's your daddy now?

Barack is going to the White House today to meet with the doltish Dauphin. I can't imagine what that meeting will be like, and not just because both campaigns were basically trashing all the policies of the Bush administration, but also because of the stark contrast in their personal histories. And what a study in contrast - Bush had every advantage thrust upon him and earned nothing on his own, except perhaps the title of The Least Popular President in Modern History, but now that I think of it, he had some help with that too. His education - prep school, legacy admit to Yale, Harvard B school, did he get into any of these places his own merit? All of his business misadventures were all with the help of his daddy's cronies. Even the presidency was awarded to him by his daddy's cronies. Sure Barack went to elite schools, but he earned his admissions and took advantage of every opportunity that came his way. When he finished Harvard Law, instead of going corporate, he dedicated himself to public service. )It is sort of delicious that the Repugs so mocked him for having been a community organizer, and it was those very skills that helped propel him into the White House.) You have one person who is proud of his ignorance and limited thinking, and the other who is deliberative, thoughtful and intellectual. The list of differences goes on and on. McCain is in fact, not all that different from Bush. He too, had an amazingly privileged life and relied on his daddy's and grandaddy's connections to make his way through the world. People seem to think that he sprung from a ranch in Arizona, but he, like Bush, was a born Washington insider. Well, it is really nice to think that both Bush and McCain are OUT!
