Bush family sleaziness
I used to amuse my coworkers with a few unprintable jokes about a fictional member of the Bush family with the off color name of "Pierce Bush." They were more locker room than political jokes, but I'll laugh at anything that makes that family look bad.

Until now.

It seems that there actually is a Bush named Pierce. OMG! Neil Bush, knowing what his last name implies actually had the tasteless wits to name his own son "Pierce Bush." Here's a link with more of Neil's sleaziness explored:

Is this supposed to be family values? Is everything a joke to them?

1. In a word - Yup!
I recall hearing that Neil was on a radio show describing "charming big brother" memories of George, which included giving his younger brothers 10-15 seconds head start before he would shoot at their backs with a BB gun. AT AGE 16, for god's sake! My father would have slapped me senseless if I'd done something like that at 7 or 8, let alone at 16.

Didn't know about the name, though -- guess it's not just the Bush "morals" that are obscene...

Whaddya wanta bet that he did even more in Thailand than he's admitting to in the depo?

maiden name. She is a descendant of Franklin Pierce, a Democratic president. Can you believe it?

3. Did you see the special on the Best/Worst Presidents?
Pierce made the list of Worst. They might as well have subtitled the program: "*elected Presidents, or present occupant excepted", since we know Shrub will eventually top the "Worst" list.

Gee, bet Babs is ever so proud....
