Here’s a shocker for you. Now that Bush no longer has to bother imitating fake rancher Ronald Reagan, the cowhand from Connecticut can’t get out of his beloved Crawford fast enough. Fakery fans will remember that the Greenwich-born Bush hastily built his fake ranch house during the 2000 campaign. Blaming Laura for abandoning the old homestead is a nice touch, too.

Mr. Bush said they were looking for somewhere to live when they leave Washington, DC, as Mrs. Bush no longer wanted to live on their ranch in Crawford, Texas.
