I don’t know how to explain to people at this point that GEORGE W BUSH IS FROM CONNECTICUT.

He’s not from Texas! The hat and the folksy accent was always a strategy! Being “folksy” is something effete liberals are supposed to find impossible to even imagine.

The GOP has been doing Confederacyface for most of a century. It’s ALWAYS projection.

@Catvalente I remember this from a previous decade. He is from a wealthy New England family, old-school Republican style. Also, he was responsible for linking Southern evangelicals to his father's campaign & the rest is history.

@Catvalente
George W. Bush was the one I thought of when I read your previous post!
Born in CT, private high school in MA, college at Yale in CT, grad school in MA.
Texas can have him as far as I'm concerned, but he ain't much Texan.

@Catvalente Prescott: "umm, how can we make it look like all this arms-dealing and war-profiteering money was acquired somehow, uh, legitimately?"
