A rich & powerful daddy can be a big asset. It also helps to be a corporate
whore so the other rich & powerful white guys can give you lots of $$$$. It
also helps to have a governor brother who has no quams about massaging a few
votes to push the election in the "right" direction.

I mean, how gullible do you have to be to buy into that nonsense?


How stupid do you have to be to not see what a nitwit he is after hearing
him speak? He can't come up with more than 1 or 2 coherent sentences in a
row. And he needs to make up words to get that far.

So his father made it so he could be fully qualified to fly F-102s even though
jet fighters take a lot of skill and intelligence to pilot? Do you really
believe that? If so do you have any idea how ludicrous that sounds?

So people with speech impediments are nitwits?

He doesn't have a speach impediment; he has an intelligence impediment, an
integrety impediment.

If he wasn't intelligent he would never have earned a master's degree or
qualified in a jet fighter.

Then again, you don't care about facts.

Actually, I don't believe that's true. About 15 years ago I worked
with a guy that had at one time helped train middle-east pilots to fly
american built fighters. Unlike most US pilots, these guys got to be
pilots not because they were qualified, but because they were royalty
(there's a lot of royalty in the middle east). The stories he told
were great, and the bottom line was while it does take some skill to
fly, it doesn't take a lot. It does however, take a lot to fly well,
and if the middle east pilots ever got into a dogfight with US pilots,
the vast majority wouldn't last long enough to crap in their pants.

Read Richard Bach's _Stranger to the Ground_. In it, he says flying a jet
fighter (F-84F in his case) is so easy that the Air Force should train a
boy scout and a grandmother to fly them at air shows.
