Bush on Brokeback Ranch

Gene Lyons observes, from NWAnews.com :: Northwest Arkansas' News Source, that: ..."Never mind that it was sheer fakery. Bush is no more a rancher than he’s a brain surgeon. He may know something about the tax advantages of cattle depreciation, or his accountants do, but about actual livestock ? Nothing. He bought the Crawford spread in 1999 as a backdrop for his presidential run. Otherwise, he’s spent his whole life in cities. Even today, Bush owns no cattle and doesn’t ride horses. He ropes and brands mountain bikes from golf carts. He doesn’t walk that way because he’s leg-weary from time in the saddle ; he’s imitating John Wayne and Clint Eastwood. Even the laconic mumbling’s partly an act.

Bush is the living embodiment of the Texan proverb, “All hat and no cattle.” The French word is “poseur.”"

Cheer on, young George. Maybe someday you will actually play in the game, rather play at playing
