According to a Nov. 12 story in The Washington Times, First lady Laura Bush recalls a visit with her husband to the home of his parents, the former president and Mrs. Bush. "George woke up at 6 a.m. as usual and went downstairs to get a cup of coffee," Mrs. Bush says. "And he sat down on the sofa with his parents and put his feet up. And all of a sudden, Barbara Bush yelled, 'Put your feet down!' "George's dad replied, 'For goodness' sake, Barbara, he's the president of the United States.' "And Barbara said, 'I don't care. I don't want his feet on my table.' " The president promptly did as he was told, for as Mrs. Bush observes: "Even presidents have to listen to their mothers."
