Bush returns to White House for formal portrait unveiling with Obama

[ibby]

George W. Bush basked in a warm White House welcome on Thursday for the unveiling of his official portrait -- and jokingly invited President Barack Obama to find inspiration there when struggling with the world's thorniest problems.
"When you are wandering these halls as you wrestle with tough decisions, you will now be able to gaze at this portrait and ask: 'What would George do?" the 43rd president quipped.
The joke ? Obama still blames Bush on the campaign trail for the sour economy, and accuses him of neglecting the decade-long Afghanistan war ? drew laughter from the 44th president and an audience packed with current and former government officials.
Former First Lady Laura Bush was there, her portrait revealed alongside her husband's. Their daughters Jenna and Barbara attended the ceremony. So did former president George H. W. Bush, seated in a wheelchair, and former First Lady Barbara Bush.
"I am honored to be hanging near a man who gave me the greatest gift possible, unconditional love -- and that would be number 41," Bush, choking up, said to his father.

At least he didn't say GW or GWB, of course there are some of us here that call him Baby Doc. And more importantly they can ask "What did George do?"
