How does Dubya = Bush?

Sorry…I’m Canadian and US politics is not the fore front here…sorry =)

I know that this is a general question, but it only seems to pop up here more often.

Thx.

It’s Southern for “W.”

George H. W. Bush was president before Clinton . . . Now his son, George W. Bush, is running. Middle initials are used to differentiate between the two.

We call GWB Dubya for short b/c his middle initial is W.

Ok…the Canadian brain cells are still in they way…

Huh???

‘Dubya’ now = Southern for “W.” ??? (I know that “W” is his middle initial…but I’m still lost.)

Ahhh!!! I got it!!! That’s pretty funny!!!

LOL!

Thanks guys!!!
