Jealously on your part. And, in large part due to the decisions
you described in your first paragraph above. You make your
decisions and you have to live with the decisions that your
decisions. If you are unhappy with the decisions you have made
change those decisions but, don't expect the rest of society to
conform to your view of how it should be based upon the decisions
that you have made.

You're assuming, stupidly, that it's all about personal choice.
Wubya was born into an extremely powerful WASP family. I trust you
will concede he wouldn't have made it nearly as far without those
family connections.

Please explain how Wubya "decided" to be born into the Bush family.
Your jealously shines through again.

What sane person would be jealous of that fool?

Nice evasion, though.

You! You cant stop talking about him.

I think it's a bad idea when stupid people end up in positions of power.
But my irritation with the Bush regime is not with the halfwit, because
he can't help it. It's with Rumsfeld and Rove, and Cheney and Wolfowitz
and Addison and Woo, and all the rest of the true believers who allowed
them to be hyponotized by ideology.

Now with that out of the way: you didn't actually defend your argument
that everyone ends up where they are solely by choice. According to you
you've done well in your life. Would you have done as well if your skin
was a less popular color, or if your family had less money?
