George W. Bush

George W. Bush was the 43rd President of the United States. He also appears to be one of the few men on Earth Chris respects. Though Bush was President at the time Chris wrote that list, it is unclear if Chris means that he likes Bush personally, or just whoever happens to hold of the office at any given time.
Role in the PVCC Crisis of 2004

He’s going to write to US PRESIDENT, George W. Bush Jr., and Laura Bush, to help me get allowed back to PVCC. WE ALL CURSE DEATH upon that XXXXX, Mary Lee Walsh! | ” |

Surprisingly, President Bush did not intervene on behalf of the Chandlers. The ramifications of this inaction are sure to be debated by Presidential historians for centuries to come.
Appearance in Sonichu #8
Despite Bush's refusal to help the Chandlers in 2004, Chris would honor him in 2008 by featuring him in the final issue of Sonichu produced before he left office. In it, Bush is seen tipping over a ladder being used by his eventual successor Barack Obama as he attempts to paint the White House black. Later in a Mumble chat, Chris stated that he believed that it was not a joke, but a legitimate theory that Obama might actually do such a thing.[citation needed]
Superfluous use of "Jr."
Like many other English mistakes he has made, Chris consistently calls him George W. Bush Jr. The Jr. is not needed, because the lone middle initial distinguishes him from his father George H.W. Bush. This may just be a cultural thing, however, as Chris's half-brother Cole Smithey also calls him George Bush Jr.[2]
ED edit
In an ED edit, Chris invoked President Bush in order to fight the slanderous trolls at ED.

Obviously, this had the complete opposite effect of what he had intended.
