I made the comment in response to someone stating that he shouldn't get into Harvard business school because he wouldn't be able to handle it. Sometimes experience is far more valuable than sitting in a classroom.

With that said, I know Bush's past PA during his first term very well (Logan Walters). He went to Texas and i'm good friends with his younger brother who is at the Citadel. I can promise you he did a little more than walk the dog and hold mints. That article really doesn't do the position any justice.

I am actually quite shocked that some of you don't think being the President's right hand mand is that big of a deal and, what was it, "the same as any 'ole assistant job."

........with that said.....Pierce Bush is about to be over here in a little while........perhaps I'll get him to get the lowdown on all of this. I'm sure he wouldn't mind giving uncle George a call.

actually, i said this has nothing to do with his ability to do the work. if you actually took the time to read what i wrote, this is about minimum requirements. last time i checked, to get into any graduate/professional level institution one had to have a minimum of a bachelor's degree in something. as i stated previously



obviously reading is not fundamental at some universities.

This is what you responded to me with:


I never said anything about him getting in/not getting in because of requirements. I responded to a post questioning his ability to be able to do the work and cope with being at a top rate business school....from which I stated that experience can help quite a bit, I believe Shiner said something similar. I realize you never commented on ability........I never said you did. If anyone needs to re-read a post...its you.

If you want to respond to me, save your petty bullshit insults for someone who cares. Surely you can come up with something better than "obviously reading is not fundamental at some universities." I know you have convinced yourself that you are the most intellectually superior person on Greekchat.....but it is astounding to me how lame you can get when you are actually trying to be a dick.

just because i said you didn't read my post? apparently you're not getting mad because you're dredging up stuff that has nothing to do with the conversation, LOL. i didn't even talk about anything like that, but you're already post about it. gee, you're a sensitive one.

now back to the actual subject, the point of this thread has nothing to do with him being able to do the work and everything with him bypassing minimum requirements. if i read enough books on medicine and work in a hospital, by golly i should be allowed into med school. screw a bachelor's.



now read it again, but this time sslllooowwwlllyy. i don't convince myself of anything. you're just insecure.

I'm sorry, I know it has NOTHING to do with this thread (ok, maybe just a little) but I found this very amusing and wanted to share.

If you go on wikipedia and look under "Neil Bush" you'll find this:

Bush and his former wife, Sharon Smith, were married for 23 years. They divorced in April 2003, amid a dispute with Maria and Robert Andrews. Robert Andrews sued Sharon in September 2003 for defamation after Sharon alleged that Neil was the father of the Andrews' two-year-old son. Bush's divorce deposition gained public attention when he admitted to several sexual encounters with women in Thailand and Hong Kong.

Neil and Sharon are the parents of three children; Lauren (a model), Pierce, and Ashley. The divorce proceedings gained public attention. Among the incidents aired in the press, Neil Bush's friend John Spalding announced that Sharon had extracted hair samples from her estranged husband in order to place a voodoo curse on him. Sharon Bush later confirmed the forcible hair removal, but she stated that she took the hair to be tested for evidence of drug use. At various times Sharon Bush publicly spoke of her fear of retribution by Neil Bush and the Bush Family. At other times she praised Barbara and George Bush's understanding. One of these conversations with author Kitty Kelley was witnessed by a third party.

Bush remarried in Houston, Texas on March 6, 2004 to Maria Andrews. Andrews spent time volunteering with charitable organizations with Neil's mother, Barbara Bush.

:D

Hey, starang21, I understand the point about bypassing requirements......thanks. What is the matter with you? Trying to explain something to you makes we want to kick small children.

I so agree with you!!! lol

THERE WAS A SMALL DISCUSSION A FEW PAGES BACK.......about how he may fare well at Harvard because of his experience and the people that he has been around. I know its hard for you to handle, but some of us deviated from the "requirements" topic for just a short while. I'm really sorry about that. That is what I commented on, as well as Shinerbock and a couple others.

You should know by now that I generally don't respond to anything you say. I never made it a point to comment on your incessant barage of posts concerning requirements. I understand that not graduating probobly looks fishy. I don't really care though. If he does well, good for him.

What's wrong with people? :D

LOL, starang21 huh? geez, are you crying now, to? is this an example of you not responding to me? that's the like the 5th reference about kicking small children. hard time handling your emotions?

he very well might be a genius and be able to hack the work and have the minimum academic knowledge to get somewhere. though i think that's probably not the case because the kid dropped out his freshman year. fishy is the understatement of the year regarding his admission.

To me, him not having an undergrad degree is about the same as going to a graduate program after majoring in something completely unrelated to what you are planning on studying.

i'd venture to say that even if the president wasn't unpopular the whole getting a master's without an undergraduate degree first would probably ruffle a few feathers.

Possibly - I still think, though, that if it wasn't the name "Bush" attached, some of the criticisms in this thread would change to "Good for him!"

That's just my read on it though. I also agree with Munchkin that, while the admission is one thing, how well he does with it is a whole other matter.

Haha, fair enough.

Delt, as to your point, I don't personally think the names of the other presidents given would cause the same reaction from some of the people responding in the thread. I think people see the name "Bush" and instantly get a negative reaction. If this was Clinton or Carter, some of the people in this thread would probably have a more positive reaction to this.
