Kudos to this young guy!! Let's face it - Chimperator Bush has no real interest in this guy of any of the victims of the bridge collapse. The Chimperator was only out looking for a PR opportunity that involves ANYTHING other than Iraq and other misdeeds of his regime. Here are highlight's on the bridge hero's story:
When President Bush’s staff contacted him to request a photo opportunity, “He was just, like, ‘Nope,’ ”
On a positive front, it looks like some things may be looking up for the young hero, 20-year-old Jeremy Hernandez (pictured above left):
Within a day, news outlets across the country were repeating the story of the school bus, along with a sad footnote — that Mr. Hernandez had recently been forced to drop out of an automotive repair program because he could not afford the $15,000 tuition. That has changed. On Saturday, Mr. Hernandez learned that Dunwoody College of Technology had offered him a full scholarship toward a degree in applied science. He has also received offers of help from dozens of strangers across the country, said Molly Schwartz, communications director for Pillsbury United Communities, which employed him as a gym coordinator for one of its summer programs.
