The Bush* Family Laff Riot – Fart Machines
By Lloyd Grove

No one can accuse Connecticut money manager Jonathan J. Bush of having an esoteric sense of humor. I'm told the 72-year-old uncle of President Bush has bought a box of mail-order remote-control fart machines, which he presents as gag gifts to friends and relatives.

"Flatulation devices — that's the clinical term," says health-care executive Jonathan S. Bush, who spoke for his father on this explosive issue. "My father likes to make people laugh with hilarious jokes. Ever since his brother George was in the White House, his great claim has always been that he is one joke removed from the presidency."

While Jonathan J.'s other son, "Access Hollywood" reporter Billy Bush, likes to entertain pals by setting his off in the office, a top White House source said the President has yet to recieve one of the $12.99 machines — which boasts digitally stored, button-activated fart noises.

"George was a great one for whoopee cushions when he was a drinking man and a cutup," the President's first cousin said, "but I'd be surprised if he was into that sort of thing anymore."

Life is full of surprises.
