4. Where's the outrage?

A fucking high school dropout who later gets a GED in the Marine Corps, fathers a child in Korea and abandons it, runs a scam with tobacco money kickback at Riker's Island while the warden there, gets a job as Ghouliani's chauffeur, and then winds up as a United States Cabinet Secretary?

Have we NO fucking standards anymore?

I'm hardly an academic elitist. But is it wrong to want to have people in charge of shit who just might be smarter than me?

Is that so wrong?

Where's the outrage (to steal a quote from that paragon of virtue, Bill Bennett (R-Addicted Gambler))?
