That's news?

Lemme see, is that a reference to the incumbent president? The one who
spent three times as long in military service and qualified to fly
single-seat, single-engine jets? The one with the Yale degree and the
Harvard MBA?



Word is he was a 'C' average student. Despite his Harvard MBA, baby
Bush's Arab funded oil exploration company was a failure. Word is
that he ran all his business ventures into the ground* at some point.
While he may have been privileged enough to qualify to fly a jet
fighter, he saw no combat in the TANG, and apparently left his duty
early to campaign for a politician. And while he may be an incumbent
president, he wasn't elected to both terms.
