I understand how it's tough for some people to get to the bottom of who George W. Bush is. His entire public persona has been carefully constructed with cowboy constumes, fake ranches, flight suits, and a Stepford wife. All of it obscures the fact that the guy is simply the fortunate son of a former President.
Some people say it's unfair to judge him based upon his past, but I think it's the best way to get to who he was before his handlers began to craft his every movement. Everything I've read about him leads me to believe I would not like him were I to meet him in real life and he would probably not like me. He might even call me a "major league asshole".
