Jeb Bush's son arrested for public intoxication, resisting arrest

AUSTIN John Ellis Bush, the youngest son of Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, was arrested early Friday and charged with public intoxication and resisting arrest, law enforcement officials in Texas said.

The 21-year-old nephew of President Bush was arrested by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission at 2:30 a.m. Friday on a corner of Austin's Sixth Street bar district, said spokesman Roger Wade.

John Ellis Bush was released on $2,500 bond for resisting arrest, and on a personal recognizance bond for the public intoxication charge, officials said.

Alia Faraj, the spokeswoman for Jeb Bush said the incident "is a personal family matter" which the governor and his wife "are dealing with privately."

It's not the first time Florida's first family has experienced legal problems with one of their children.

Noelle Bush, the governor's daughter, was arrested in January 2002 and was accused of trying to pass a fraudulent prescription at a Tallahassee pharmacy to obtain the anti-anxiety drug Xanax. She completed a drug rehabilitation program in August 2003 and a judge dismissed the drug charges against her.

Noelle Bush was sent to jail twice for violating rules during her rehab stint. She was jailed for three days in July 2002 after being caught with prescription pills and served 10 days a month later after being accused of having a small rock of crack cocaine in her shoe.

Hey; Everybody transmit this information.

Remember this is a street fight, the opposition plays dirty, dirty, dirty. We have, and support, it costs us, at least 12 million illegals.

If the bush family supports illegal immigration and amnesty, by any name, drape the World with their infractions, any, to break the SPELL!!

This kid has been in legal problems before when he was caught in flagrante delicto with a girl in a car in a public parking lot.

Shades of clinton, play the trollop card. cheers glenn

Too bad it wasn't George P. Bush, who is currently an attorney and the Ricky Martin of the Republican Party. He's being groomed to take office in the very near future.

Oh, and he also gives speeches (en Espanol) to MeCha and La Raza rallies.

His sister sounds like she could be a fun date, though!
