Bush George Walker

When it comes to reporting on politics, nobody does it smarter or funnier than bestselling author Molly Ivins. In Shrub, Ivins focuses her Texas-size smarts on the biggest politician in her home state: George Walker Bush, or "Shrub," as Ivins has nicknamed Bush the Younger. A candidate of vague speeches and an ambiguous platform, Bush leads the pack of GOP 2000 presidential hopefuls; "Dubya" could very well be our next president. What voters need now is an original, smart, and accessible analysis of Bush--one that leaves the "youthful indiscretions" to the tabloids and gets to the heart of his policies and motivations. Ivins is the perfect woman for the job. With her trademark wit and down-home wisdom, Molly Ivins shares three pieces of advice on judging a politician: "The first is to look at the record. The second is to look at the record. And third, look at the record." In this book, Ivins takes a good, hard look at the record of the man who could be the leader of the free world. Beginning with his post-college military career, Ivins tracks Dubya's winding, sometimes unlikely path from a failed congressional bid to a two-term governorship. Bush has made plenty of friends and supporters along the way, including Texas oil barons, evangelist Billy Graham, and co-investors in the Texas Rangers baseball team. "You would have to work at it to dislike the man," she writes. But for all of Bush's likeability, Ivins points to a disconcerting lack of political passion from this ascending presidential candidate. In her words, "If you think his daddy had trouble with 'the vision thing, ' wait till you meet this one." Witty, trenchant, and on target, Ivins gives asingularly perceptive and entertaining analysis of George W. Bush. To head to the voting booth without it would be downright un-American. From Shrub: The Short but Happy Political Life of George W. Bush " The past is prologue in politics.

Read by Molly Ivins Three Cassettes, 5 hours There couldn't be a better person than Texas daughter Molly Ivins to cover the recently hatched but rapidly ascending political career of George Walker Bush, the leader among the GOP 2000 presidential hopefuls. While the media dwells on Bush's "youthful indiscretions," Ivins looks at his stance on the real issues and shows that for all his congeniality (""You would have to work at it to dislike the man"), there is not much there: "The single worst thing I can say about George W. Bush after five years of watching him is that if you think his daddy had trouble with 'the vision thing, ' wait'll you meet this one." Bush, whose only prior political experience was assisting his father's campaign, has succeeded largely due to his vagueness--voters are able to read into him the views they want. Shrub is Ivin's first book that is not a collection of previously published pieces. This brand-new material is timed just right for the snow of New Hampshire and George "Dubya's" first national test drive. Funny, trenchant, and on-target, Ivins gives the most perceptive and entertaining reading of the man she calls Shrub--and that's President Shrub to the rest of us.
