Mel, George Bush said: "Laura is a west Texas girl just like me"

I do not believe that he is either from Texas or Connecticut. George Bush was born in Hell.

If you are raised in Texas, it's not pretending to say that's where you're from, even if you weren't born there. I'm not a fan of W either but you can definitely hear that TX "twang" in his slurred speech. Check out the hilarious video below.

The place you were born is often irrelevant. Just ask the army brats (no insult intended) that you know. People identify more with where they lived when they came to the sense of who they are. George W. lives large, has a big hat, owned a baseball team, knows all the oil barrons by first names. Yep, he's a Texan.

I was born in Portsmouth, but I am a Londoner because thats where I grew up, I had several friends in the Army fellow soldiers, 1 born in cyprus, 1 Born in Germany, 1 born in Hong Kong, all three were british, not cypriot or german or Chinese, you are where you grow up not just where you are born, what happens if you are born on a ship in the middle of the Atlantic?? are you an Atlantican ? suggest you grow up and stop being silly

Being born somewhere is different than growing up there. I was born in California, but I'm from Virginia. I find it odd that you have no problem with Hillary Clinton claiming New York as home, but you have a problem with the former governor of Texas claiming Texas as such.

He was a duly elected Governor of Texas; lived in Texas for most of his life as did many oil persons.

Why does Hillary Clinton pretend to be from New York?

Because he has spent nearly 30 years of his life living in Texas.

I lived in Texas while Bush was Governor and never heard one time he say he was from Texas but that Texas was his home.
You are hearing that from others that do not know the correct information.

Yes.
Because No One would admit to being from Connecticut!!!
That would end anyone's political career.
If you were born in Connecticut, you might as well put a sign around your neck that says: "Loser".
Ask Cris Dodd. Hillary is stomping that little Commie.
But..... being from Texas gets Respect from all over the World.
