Instead of inserting him into the privileged classes, he should have inserted young Willard into the real world of real people and not have insisted that the accumulation of money be the central pillar of his life.

George should have insisted that his son dedicate his like to compassion and humanity instead.

By most reports, he was a decent man, for a Republican, and not afraid of real, hard work. Mittens fell pretty far from the tree.

but then, willard shows all the signs of a nascissistic sociopath, so it's not clear what even active parenting could have done....

like Willard did to his kids.

I'm betting it's a family thing, that George did do shit like that to Willard and Willard parents his kids the same way.

The money being passed around here during SLOC was insane, yet people look at me funny when I ask why a professional thief is running for the Presidency.

the right wing lies go unchallenged by the corporate media. Most people believe whatever they hear on FOX and from Rush. Romney had billions in corporate cash backing him up,. they are surpressing votes. i don't mean to be a kill joy but I think he is going to win/

I don't think that most people listen and believe everything said by the hatemongers. And I don't think that Mittens will win. They will lie and they will cheat and they will still lose.

Welcome to DU. And watch out being a killjoy.

read up on sociopathy.... these folks fit the mold, and yes, fortunately, they are the minority, but their dumbs followers aren't. (See Germany pre-Hitler)
