If @GeorgeHWBush is really George H.W. Bush's account, I'm very disappointed it makes no mention of his socks.

I wouldn't mind if new @GeorgeHWBush feed was simply a daily display of colorful presidential socks.

Looking forward to updates on socks styles and trends –and just maybe other opinions from @GeorgeHWBush. His first tweet is posted today!

Maybe when Bush starts tweeting photos of his amazing socks he’ll earn that “verified” blue check mark. Socks or not, plenty were happy to welcome the 41st president to Twitter.
