Guess who's just joined Facebook?

His page lists his location as ‘Dallas, TX’, his birthday as ‘July 6, 1946’ and he has 73,289 friends (more than the uncharitable might have imagined).

That’s right, George W Bush has just joined Facebook.

No naked/drunken photos as yet (presumably he’s leaving that to the younger Bushes), just this first status update:

Since leaving office, President Bush has remained active. He has visited 20 states and 8 countries; given over 65 speeches; launched the George W. Bush Presidential Center; participated in 4 policy conferences through The Bush Institute; finished the first draft of his memoir, “Decision Points”; and partnered with President Clinton to establish the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund. More on his activities in future posts…

The anticipation is killing us.
