Verification wanted: Bush's nickname |
|
Just testing this internet tidbit on the "truth-meter" here.
It has been said that George W. Bush's Skull and Bones nickname was "Temporary". Anyone see this before?

5. On one of those google links I found this: |
|
"George W. Bush was called 'Temporary'because he was not assigned a name and didn't choose one."
Kind of like his Presidency. He wasn't elected President, he was appointed ("assigned) the job. He didn't really want it, cuz it's such "hard work", and he's always wanted a permanent vacation, but the PNAC dragged him into it as their little puppet (he didn't "choose" the job).

At least that's what Robin Williams said, and I trust him.
