"Best jokes from Bush portrait unveiling' (video)

Talking Points Memo with video (02:29):
Politics took a backseat at the White House Thursday as President George W. Bush and Laura Bush returned to witness the unveiling of their official portraits — and to trade zingers with the current occupants of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
“George, I will always remember the gathering you hosted for all of the living former presidents before I took office. Your fine words of encouragement,” President Obama said. “Plus you also left me a really good TV sports package. I use it.”
Things only got better from there.
“When you are wandering these halls as you wrestle with tough decisions, you will now be able to gaze at this portrait and ask, ‘What would George do?’” joked Bush.
Howie P.S.: Laura looks (see photo below) like she saved some of Shrub's stash from his younger days.It would be less difficult to join in the yuks if the stench of violence and mendacity could have been banished from the occasion.
