George H.W. Bush is the former 41st president of the United States.
History
During his presidency, he commended a sting operation that resulted in the arrest of Congressman Bob Roberts for corruption and bribery. He was in line attending the birthday party of Mr. Burns, only to be told himself and Jimmy Carter are not invited as they are one-termers [1]. George H. Bush and his wife, Barbara, moved to Springfield because they wanted to live somewhere where people do not care about politics and found out that Springfield had the lowest voter turnout. Although Bush gets along well with Ned Flanders, Bart is a nuisance. Bart's annoyances result in the destruction of Bush's memoirs, which an enraged Bush gives Bart a spanking as punishment. Upon learning of the spanking, Homer attempts different pranks to get back at Bush, resulting in a fistfight in the sewer that ends up above the street. George apologized for spanking Bart in front of Mikhail Gorbechav despite explaining that he couldn't show weakness in front of the Russians. Immediately afterwards, he told Barbara that they were leaving the town. Barbara, who got along well with Marge Simpson, apologized for having to leave. Bush's house is soon bought by Gerald Ford, who instantly connects with Homer over their clumsiness, and love of football, beer, and nachos. He is also seen collecting an unemployment check when Marge gets fired from the realty agency she worked at [2]".
Behind the Scenes
Real Life
In one moment during his presidency, Bush made a speech about family values and how the American family ought to be "more like the Waltons and less like the Simpsons." In response, before the first rerun of Stark Raving Dad, the show made a clip of the Simpsons watching Bush's speech on television, and Bart responding with, "Hey, we're like the Waltons. We're praying for an end to the depression, too."
