How feeble your many excuses for Bush have become.

Where did he live before he lived in the governor's mansion?  He didn't
have a home? A man with his money? So, why the ranch? Obviously because the
usual kind of non-governor's mansion he was used to would not go over well
with the Southern rednecks he was trying to cultivate, not to mention
"middle America." A nice little ranch in hard-scrabble Texas
would do nicely.

Once out of the White House, you can be certain he will dump the ranch.
Members of the Bush clan don't live on ranches.
