Apparently I'm not the only one who's underwhelmed.

George W. Bush and/or staff have created a Facebook Page for the former POTUS. However, the third-person updates and marketing materials for former First Lady Laura Bush’s book are striking a less-than-personal note.

...we just hope he updates the account himself once in a while; we have the feeling that a personal update from Bush might be more entertaining, more humanizing and better for his overall image online than a string of press release snippets. link

I guess you decided to edit out the parts of the opinion that you didn't like. :rolleyes:

In around 15 hours, a total of two updates have spawned more than 2,900 reactions (that’s Likes and comments counted together), and the page has been Liked by more than 57,000 people. This number is soaring even as we type.

Of course, the page has its detractors, as well. But politics aside, it’s good to see another prominent political figure embracing social media just enough to get a taste of what people really think and feel — a very proletariat move for Mr. Bush.

brevity = hypocrisy and empathy = fascism.

Ummmm. I didn't "edit out" anything. :rolleyes: I simply didn't c&p the entire article. You do actually realize that, right? I did, however, post the pertinent parts, the part stating it's not even Bush himself doing the writing and the part starting with "Now we just hope ....." as that shows about as much enthusiasm for the actual content of the account as I have.

The cite consists basically of three press releases written by someone else. If that excites you and approximately 130,000 other people in a world of billions, enjoy! Maybe the person doing the writing will even let you be his Facebook friend. Oh, happy day! :)

Facebook is for the weak and simple - George should enjoy himself - I wonder if he wants to be my friend? Sure would get a kick out of toying and insulting him on a daily basis - but...he might bore me.
