Jeb Bush Resigns as George W. Bush’s Brother

Jeb Bush Resigns as George W. Bush’s Brother
BY ANDY BOROWITZ

..............

“No longer being related to his brother is a key step to clearing Jeb’s path to the nomination,” an aide said on New Year’s Day. “We expect his poll numbers to soar on this.”

According to the aide, the former Florida governor resigned his post as brother in a ten-minute phone call with George W. Bush, after which he blocked the former President’s phone number and e-mail address.

In an official statement, George W. Bush said that he “understands and supports” his former brother’s decision.

“If I were him, I would no longer be related to me either,” he said.

Reminds me of the DUer that would post their humorous takes on current events. Can't recall the name though.
