Bush II: founded three oil companies, all of which went bankrupt through his incompetence.
     This is another misconception people have because they work off the assumption Bush is stupid. If you look into this a little more I think you'll find that after banckruptcy the companies were sold off piecemeal (to family or friends) for a tidy profit. It's a fairly common practice. It's easy to assume incompetence, especially with Bush, but if you look a little closer his business failures tended to increase his bottom line. Not bad for an idiot. Too bad there were people that needed those jobs to feed their families. I guess that they aren't that important. Still, if that is Bush the businessman, what should we expect from Bush the President?
