I was joking

When I built my fictional list of "books I read" in the ten days I was in Crawford, I was joking, but apparently my fictional list doesn't beat George's.

No word on whether Bush ever read anything Mahfouz wrote. But really -- so many books, so little time. Asked about his summer reading, Bush tells NBC's Brian Williams: "I was in Crawford and I said I was looking for a book to read, and Laura said, 'You oughtta try Camus.' I also read three Shakespeares."

Seriously, the "fart joke president?"
