I got this off a list I belong to, so sorry I do not have the original source...

It's clearly partly based in opinion, but also clearly the facts related here are disturbing when they are not hilarious...
enjoy!

Sheesh, that really spells it out.

Is it really true, though, did all 50 States simultaneously declare bankruptcy?

I'd love to see a wealthy group pay to have this in a full page ad in various papers, but I'd want good solid references to back it up. If nothing else any Dems who decide to run against him should use it as a template for campaign!

Thanks, Peg,

I did a search at the Snopes site for this one, and didn't find it using GEORGE W. BUSH RESUME, the title in both the copy/past article and the one Wolfgang linked to. I'd love to know whether or not the "facts" listed in the article are correct.

When he was 34, he ran for Congress and lost. When he was 39, he ran for Congress again and lost. When he was 46, he ran for the US Senate and lost.

Oh, sorry, that's how Lincoln's CV did start.

The piece above is for amusement and is not meant to be scrutinised. You're bound to find errors if you do.

I'm guessing you won't find errors. You may find liberties but I don't think any of W's listed “achievements” are far enough from the mark to get him fired for lying on his CV.

Kelley Kramer, the author of the CV, has a Kelley Kramer blog that doesn't seem to have been updated in a while but is really fun (and infuriating) to read. It will give you a better picture of the author.

Weeeeeel - as a practiced Job Hunter a CV as unstructerd and as rambling as that won't get you a job.

Daddy's conections might, in which case who reads the CV.

and to quote (possibly) Uncle Joe :-

"It's not the votes that count, it's who counts the votes."

No sex you see - proves he's a good moral president. I think the biggest shock to the American public when Clinton got in, was the belated (and shocking) discovery that they had elected a president who could still achieve an erection.

Dole did commercials for Viagra as a result. I wonder if that was related to his wife's political aspirations?

Thanks Mark, I read the entire Kelly Kramer site and got a charge out his feisty, and often pointedly true, writing.
