Comments & Feedback
Dudh, Bush sure isn't a cowboy; and I like cowboys. The only thing he thinks he know about a cowboy is wearing boots, hat and jeans; and just because he can ride a horse. A real cowboy does not mind working for what he has; and they know how to wear those boots, hats, jeans and ride a horse. Bush just want to play that role because he is from Texas and has oil rigs. A real cowboy you can spot him a mile away, and that isn't just the young ones either. The older cowboys you can spot them, too! There is a way a real cowboy carries himself that you can't help but notice. Ye-ha!
