I had no idea, but Barney Bush has his very own section on the whitehouse.gov website. In any case, we know that the Bush family probably will not go to Hollywood once their current career in the White house ends. Some presidents choose this end of their last term to push through real important issues, changes of policies that they deem important to the nation. Releasing political prisoners and what not…well the Bushe’s made us a home video…I wonder if this was made before or after Mister Bush was named a ‘dog’ and shoes thrown at him at him. Speaking of which, when are we going to see Flash Banners where we have to thrown shoes or dodge them?

see the video here…

Furthermore it is noteworthy that for a search engine robot, Barneys page will have higher importance then the issues like Afghanistan, Economy and Iraq, to mention but a few…
