From The Smoking Gun comes this picture and story about the new residence for the soon-to-be former President. As long as George Bush is not in Washington, he can live anywhere. The soon-to-be former first couple (yeah it feels darn good to write it that way) paid over $2 million for 1.13 acres in Dallas.
The property was purchased for $2.07 million in early-October by Robert McCleskey, the president’s accountant, who is listed as trustee on deed records. Built in 1959, the home has been improved with a detached garage (1150 square feet), servants quarters (896 square feet), and a storage building (240 square feet). While the Bush property certainly appears comfortable, it is dwarfed by the 20-acre estate it abuts. That sprawling property (seen here) is owned by billionaire investor Tom Hicks, who, in 1998, purchased the Texas Rangers from a partnership in which Bush held a stake (the deal netted the future president about $15 million).
But, but…I thought Shrub loved Crawford and was looking forward to finally finding the time to finish clearing the brush at the ranch.
Do you mean to say he lied to us?
what was wrong with Bushes Crawford ranch? Is this new digs near Daddy Bush and his up coming library at Methodist college? Places for FBI to live?
He’s a wanna be isn’t he, having to live hear a richer than rich man that made him rich by buying Tx Rangers.
sounds like grump and marion are a bit jealous
Not even worth a comment….
He’ll have lots of brush to clear in Dallas. I can see him strutting around now!
Is satisfied with living in a farm and leave the people in the world die of aircraft and tanks
Respect has no meaning to any of you.
I’M JUST GLAD THERE HASN’T BEEN ANOTHER ATTACK ON OUR SOIL.—(REMEMBER THAT THING IN SEPT. YEARS AGO)
THANKS W.
I’d vote for Bush again and again over what we have just put in. Remember 911 and all the other terroist attacks during the clinton administration that he turned a deaf ear to while he was playing with cigars and talking to diplomats on the phone.
Umm–9/11 happened under BUSH, not Clinton.
This website reeks of stupidity. What will you do when Obama can’t walk on water?
