Politico:

Though George W. Bush left office with the reputation of a technological lummox -- infamously using the term "Internets" -- his former staffers are using their tech savvy to stay connected. Despite a handful of established Facebook groups for those who worked in the Bush administration, an effort is under way to create an online social network" for Bushies only.

Tony Fratto, a former deputy press secretary who currently heads the Bush-Cheney Alumni Association, is spearheading the charge. He told POLITICO this week that that Web developers are currently hard at work experimenting with mock-ups, and he predicts a site will launch in a few months.

I love it when the libs use cute little names like the "Bushies" to refer to our former First Lady and President of the United States. It's such a cleaver way of showing disrespect. But what can you really expect from those (libs), who are barely out of the primordial ooze that they originated from?

I love how the tr0//s defend someone that should be locked up for starting a war in a country that had nothing to do with 9-11, killing thousands of people(men, women and children), not including thousands of our soldiers, while waving the American flag claiming patriotism and christian honesty while spewing h8.

There you go with your childish name calling. You're just proving my "primordial ooze" comment. Name calling is so kindergarten, don't you think ? Try using some grown up terminology if you can. I think it's a shame parents (yours) don't teach their children manners anymore.

you are entirely correct in pointing out that ascribing a cute term such as "bushie" is highly inaccurate, and false appellation lacking in proper descrptive content. apologies are in order.
a bettter identifier might be the "romanovs" given the rasputin like control cheney exerted over the weak willed president and his spouse.
hmmmm, tzar and tzarina...that would explain his heretofore inexplicable fear of horses...

I would say a private Facebook account would be the ideal place to store their "Created Reality" items since the real Facebook deals only in certifiable FACTS! They have to live in a Parallel Universe because reality would have them all in Jail!

Only Politico, and unfortunately HuffP0, would find this non-story even remotely interesting.

"...and the section dedicated to “setting the record straight” remains conspicuously blank."

No, I'd say that's about all they have to report.

I love the "Praise Continues For President’s Accomplishments" section with articles written by Rove, Coutler, Steele, Barnes, Rice, Krauthammer, etc.

Of course, to be fair, there is one in there from Bob Geldof.

Par for the course. Conservatives created "conservapedia" because wikipedia had too great of a liberal bias, ie it had too many facts. Now they want their own little Facebook universe. They're still creating their own reality.

It has been discovered that those loyal "Bushies" who believe that George W. Bush is Abraham, Moses, Samson, and Jesus all rolled into one are working on writing a new "gospel" to be entitled "The World According to George W. Bush"!

It is believed that chapters in this book will include the "revelations" Bush received while talking to God in the Rose Garden, his ability to conduct serious discussions with animals (Barney, the First Dog!), and descriptions of shoes he has had thrown at him over the past 8 years!!!

Loyal "Bushies" throughout the country are awaiting the book with high expectations, chapters of which are expected to be read in installments on the Glen Beck show!

Well, there's the problem right there. You're not supposed to "talk to god", you're supposed to be listening.

Only "the bushies" could attempt to make a public forum like facebook into an all white male conservative country club.
What are they going to, post blurbs, rehashing stories about raping America, trampling upon the constitution, whilst sitting in leather chairs, puffing on cubans brandy snifter in hand, amongst themselves.
