The Bushes (again) confirms Clinton's "adoption" into their "family"

Is there a new member of the Bush family?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush says Bill Clinton has
become so close to his father that the Democratic former president is
like a member of the family.

Former President George Bush has worked with Clinton to raise money for
victims of the Asian tsunami and the hurricane disaster along the U.S.
Gulf Coast.

Asked about his father and Clinton, Bush quipped, "Yes, he and my new
brother."

"That's a good relationship. It's a fun relationship to watch," Bush
said in an interview with CBS News broadcast on Sunday.

While attending Pope John Paul's funeral, Bush said, "It was fun to see
the interplay between dad and Clinton. One of these days, I'll be a
member of the ex-president's club. ... I'll be looking for something to
do."

He said ex-presidents share rare experiences that others cannot
understand. "And so I can understand why ex-presidents are able to put
aside old differences," he said.

Bush said he checked in with Clinton occasionally.

"And you know, he says things that makes it obvious -- that makes it
obvious to me that we're kind of, you know, on the same wavelength
about the job of the presidency. Makes sense, after all, there's this
kind of commonality," he said.

Bush jokingly referred to speculation that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton,
the former president's wife, will seek the Democratic nomination for
the presidency. He had earlier referred to the former first lady as
"formidable."

"Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton," he said, referring to how Bill Clinton
had followed his father, and Hillary Clinton could follow him.

So much for "restoring honor and dignity to the Whitehouse".
