"Now comes incontrovertible evidence that Bush's country bumpkin persona was a bit of a front. Karl Rove, in a piece for the Wall Street Journal, tells us that underneath that bluff exterior, Bush was, if not exactly an intellectual, an avid reader. According to Rove - often referred to as Bush's brain - the two competed for the last four years over who read the most books. By the end of 2006, Bush had read a highly respectable 95 books to Rove's 110. That works out at about two books a week - a fairly impressive feat for such real masters of the universe."
"The President has always loved to read. In fact, with the help of his grandfather, he learned how to read by the time he was three years old! When he was in elementary school, he enjoyed reading Dick and Jane; later his favorite books included Black Beauty and The Last of the Mohicans."
