This says he was wearing a George W. Bush mask but then goes on to say he was Hispanic. How do they know that if he was wearing a mask?

Bush Holds Up White House
Monday, June 06, 2005


Somehow, it didn't make big news when Bush robbed the White House.

Rosenberg, Texas, police say a man wearing a George H.W. Bush mask held up the White House supermarket (search) and two other stores last week, according to local television reports.

The pistol-packing phony president made the White House grocery his first destination last Monday morning, according to KPRC-TV of Houston, before moving on to Fast Addy's convenience store about 15 minutes later.

KHOU-TV says the White House was hit second, but also notes the bandit's speed and apparent sense of political irony.

Both stations report that the bad Bush was back in action Thursday morning, holding up Davila's Drive-In Grocery Store (search).

"It appeared that he changed clothes between the offenses," Rosenberg police Detective Collin Davidson told KPRC. "There is some type of root problem to this, which is probably focused around drugs."

The masked gunman was described as a Hispanic male, 5'9", between 200 and 250 pounds — considerably shorter and portlier than either the 6'4" ex-president or his son, the exceptionally fit current occupant of the real White House.

I think the movie was Point Break where the surfers were the ex Presidents robbing the banks.
