It's Super-President!

I bet there's at least one thing you didn't know about the Bush administration's management chief, Clay Johnson, in the following paragraph from today's New York Times:


Mr. Johnson, the deputy budget director, met Mr. Bush in 1961 at Phillips Academy in Andover, Mass., when they were two 15-year-olds far from home. Mr. Johnson later ran the governor's personnel office in Austin; in Washington, he keeps a George Bush doll on his desk and is one of the few people in town to have had the Bushes at his home for dinner, motorcade, Secret Service and all.

They even have a picture of the doll (although the caption seems to more accurately describe it as an "action figure.")
