George W. Bush ALS Ice Bucket Challenge - VIDEO

By Elizabeth Nelson

President  GW Bush took the Ice Bucket Challenge, bringing awareness to ALS, and we watched him write the $25 completion check, right then.  We have Jenna Bush Hager, Rory McElroy, Woody Johnson, and Coach Jim Harbaugh for the Ice Bucket Challenge, and we can't forget our amazing Lady Laura W. Bush for dumping the Ice and writing her $100 check, because she didn't want to "ruin her hairstyle."  

In a cell phone video posted to his Facebook page Wednesday morning, Bush says although he's been challenged multiple times, he's reluctant to follow through, I can't say that I blame him though.  Obama was challenged by quite a few people over a week ago and still hasn't followed through.

Watch the full video below.

  

"I've been challenged by multiple Americans to bring awareness to the ALS campaign: Woody Johnson, our daughter  Jenna Bush Hager, Rory McElroy and Coach Jim Harbaugh," 

"To you all who've challenged me, I do not think it's presidential for me to be splashed with ice water, so I'm simply going to write you a check,"

Mrs. Laura Bush apparently had other ideas. Later in the video, she sneaks up, mid-sentence and dumps a full bucket of water over GW.'s head, saying, "That check is for me. I didn't want to ruin my hair style."

Staged? Oh, definitely. Still hilariously adorable? Absolutely. GW Bush has now challenged fellow former president and friend Bill Clinton to the challenge. Clinton turned 68 Tuesday. Bush said, "my gift to Bill is a bucket of cold water."

Oh, Remember when we had a real America Loving President and a Real Lady in the White House?  Oh, he wasn't perfect, but he was real, we were safe, and he loved this Country. Next up, in the Ice Bucket Challenge, President Bill Clinton.
