George P. Bush
Land Commissioner George P. Bush  told the editorial board of Bryan-College-Stationâs The Eagle that  he  believes Confederate Heroes Day should not be a Texas state holiday.  He  said some consider it a âslap in the faceâ to celebrate the holiday the same week as Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
The younger Bush  son of former Governor Jeb Bush  and the grandson of the 41st president   George H.W. Bush   was reported to have had an hour-long meeting with the editorial board on Friday â Confederate Heroes Day.
 Bush  told the board  he  would honor the law by offering  his  employees a skeleton crew day  but  he  does not think the holiday should continue to be recognized.
Elected in 2014 after having no formidable opposition in the primary   Bush  is now facing three Republican opponents in March.
One of  his  opponents  former Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson told Breitbart Texas on Sunday that  Bush  is about a 0-20 no-show at political forums in Texas.  Bush  is being criticized for  his  efforts with âReimagine the Alamo â as reported by the San Antonio Express-News and other outlets.
