    George Bush's likebility

    That the majority of the American people see George Bush as likable is a remarkable tribute to the success of professional PR and to the poor taste of the American people.

    How many voters actually understand what it means that George W. Bush is third generation Skull and Bones? Anybody who knows also understands that they have little or nothing in common with George W. Bush (unless their name is Rockefeller).
