GW Bush was famous for not liking broccoli

How George Learned to Love his Broccoli



President GW Bush
Was famous for not
liking broccoli
banned it from the WH kitchen
and state dinners too.

but that changed
when his doctor told him
he had to get his blood sugar
and cholesterol under control.

and the best thing he could do
was to eat his damn vegetables
starting with the humble broccoli.

the doctor suggested
steaming it first
then adding mushrooms
and a little cheese on top.

George went home
And tried it
Not bad he said
To Laura.

And they added
Brocolli to their diet.

His blood sugar
And cholesterol
thanked him

behaving nicely
for once.
