Daily Kos on a recent Last Word With Lawrence O'Donnell show: O'Donnell asked Tim Pawlenty to name a great businessman who has gone on to become a great president. Pawlenty's logic circuits seemed to be EMP'd for a moment. He babbled a bit before saying Ronald Reagan. O'Donnell laughed at him and suggested that Reagan was head of a union (SAG) and was a "union thug". Then T-Paw went back in history, citing Abraham Lincoln. O'Donnell too, laughed at this. Then T-Paw hit the $1 bill and said George Washington.
Reagan was an actor, Lincoln was a lawyer, but indeed, George Washington owned a plantation. On which he was able to really lower his labor cost. He owned 124 slaves. Apparently in GOP world this is a business model to be admired.
