PRESIDENT BUSH'S SISTER SPILLS A FEW BEANS ON THE BUSH FAMILY

DENIES THEY ARE A "DYNASTY"

She is Dorothy (Doro) Bush Koch, daughter of former president GHW Bush and Barbra Bush, sister of current president GW Bush and Florida governor Jeb Bush. She has become the Bush Family's official historian and she's written a book about the family and it's history called 'My Father, My
President'.

It's been described as "a remakarably thorough biography".

So what does she reveal that isn't already known?

Some interesting things.

She calls her brother George, "Mr President" at all times, as does their father.

Doro and George had a sister, Robin, who died of leukemia at three years of age.

The former president Bush "hardly ever misses a slight against (his son)", she says. He told Doro, "It burns the hell out of me," when George W. is criticised.

She claims any advice her father gives to his son is "personal, not politics".

It was George W. who paired former president Bill Clinton with his father to raise money for the 2004 Tsunami Appeals.

Doro claims that George W.' believes his wild drinking days during the 1970s and 1980s "turned my mother's hair white." She says her brother was never a full blown drunk, but made the decision to stop drinking, regardless. It was wife Laura Bush who got him off the booze.

Good Christ Almighty....Doro claims that her father believes Jeb Bush would also make a great president, something George W. himself has said, repeatedly.

They should just rename the whole thing the 'Bushidency.'
