The Greeter-in-chief is afraid of horses.


From Thinkprogress:
In his new autobiography, former Mexican President Vincente Fox notes that President Bush seems to be afraid of horses, once turning down an offer to ride Fox’s horse. “He demurred, backing away from the big palomino. A horse lover can always tell when others don’t share our passion,” Fox said.
In fact, Bush’s equestrian incompetence has been observed for years, as Laura Bush jokingly said in 2005:
George didn’t know much about ranches when we bought the place. Andover and Yale don’t have a real strong ranching program. But I’m proud of George. He’s learned a lot about ranching since that first year when he tried to milk the horse. What’s worse, it was a male horse.

Laura could be a twin to the Joker. She has the same sick look and fake smile. She might be a danger to others once the chip is out. Remember she did kill her ex boyfriend and to make sure he was dead she drove over him several times. No don't tell me she doesn't have nightmares about seeing that over and over again. No wonder she's been on medication every since. I know she's glad George has some girlfriends so he wont bother her with her rich Texan boyfriend.
