George Bush faces Queensland court
George Bush has been brought to justice in Queensland.

"A distant relative and namesake of US President George W Bush faced the Maroochydore Magistrates Court on the Sunshine Coast on Monday on a charge of driving while disqualified.

"We're starting with a big one today, aren't we?" Magistrate Cliff Taylor said when George Richard Wright Bush appeared in court.

Texas-born Bush, 21, was fined $550 and disqualified from driving for two years after he pleaded guilty to driving while disqualified.

Bush's solicitor Jim Ryan confirmed to the court his client was related to the world's most powerful man."

1. Guess the law-breaking runs in the family
"...disqualified from driving for two years after he pleaded guilty to driving while disqualified."

3. I found this notworthy.

Here they're speaking about the current Resident:

"He was arrested and fined $150 for drink driving when aged 30 in 1976. His younger sister Dorothy and Australian tennis star John Newcombe also were in the car."
