I'm sorry, but I'm a staunch Bush supporter and cringe everytime I see him doing the "ranch" thing. It's just not that convincing to me.
He's a Yale educated, MBA type. A businessman, a former baseball franchise owner. And he's an astute politician. He's the son of a president/CIA Director/Ambassador, for goodness' sake. I understand he's a born-again Christian and I assume a recovering alcohlic. Just doesn't fit the "cowboy" mold to me.
John Wayne and Ronald Regan, now that's a different story!

Oooh, nice picture. That's from Hondo, isn't it? One of my favorite movies of all time, and also one of my favorite Louis L'amour books.
And now the bonus question, what was the dog's name?

John Wayne said in Back to Bataan;
Colonel Madden (Back to Bataan):
"This kind of war, you've gotta believe in what you're fighting for."
Even tho it was only a scripted line in a movie it is something we all should remember.

Me too I have a collection of about 35 John Wayne movies and all my children are forced (willingly I might add) to watch them. Lotta good messages in John Wayne movies.

All my heros are cowboys.
Hate to break the news to you, but Wayne was an actor playing the role of a cowboy. How many cowboys do you know that lived in Hollywood?

His Congressional Gold Medal simply says "John Wayne - American" that says it all!
