Andrea Mitchell's yucky universe

She was doing the coverage of the White House event honoring GHW Bush's legacy on his Points of Light program. Andrea welcomed, to comment on the proceedings, one Neil Bush.

Reminder: Neil Bush was busted for his part in the Silverado Savings and Loan fiasco. His actions caused a great many senior citizens to lose their lifetime savings, many of them were left with nothing. His father being President he got off with a meager fine, a slap on the wrist, and a prohibition to any work in the banking industry. He then made a computer business and went to China and got busted by the government for making proprietary software information available to the Chinese. He came home to his family, bringing his wife a souvenir in the form of an STD he'd picked up in his travels. His next (and I think current) business, with Babs as primary investor, has to do with publishing textbooks and other educational materials, the kind they push in Texas.

"It's just SO NICE to see you again!" gushed Andrea.

Yuck.
