Talk:Columba Bush
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Defamation
Why did you feel the need to add information that was defaming? Is your sad little life so consumed by your dislike of G.W. Bush and his extended family that you derive enjoyment from listing information not truly relevent to the subject matter?
- I removed the above-mentioned information from the article and I'd like some information about how she convinced him to convert from Anglicanism to Roman Catholicism.--HistoricalPisces 17:52, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
Information? The answer to your question is obvious. When a Roman Catholic marries, he or she is expected to marry in church, even if the other spouse is non-Catholic. The Roman Catholic party is also expected to do everything in his or her power to have the children baptized and brought up as Catholics. Under such circumstances, there is pressure, either explicit or subtle, on the other party, to convert.
In this case, Mrs. Bush was Catholic. Jeb was not, until he married her.

[edit] Legendary?
If the arts expert Sara Turner is legendary, why does she not have a page about her? 68.164.80.212 00:32, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Customs Infraction section
Don't see how this is really relevant or necessary by itself. I'm inclined to remove it soon if no-one objects. Grandmasterka 01:00, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
I object to its removal. I think the information about the customs incident should remain. Mrs. Bush was the wife of the Governor of Florida at the time, and she failed to comply with the law. The violation was called to her attention, and she persisted in her refusal to follow the law. It is important for people to know of such conduct when it is engaged in by a person in that position. Also, while the Bush family is willing to push its religious and moral views on us, it governs itself by another standard.
