On the heels of the just-completed Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., MSN has a short video of President George H.W. Bush imitating Dana Carvey imitating Bush. Carvey, you might recall, spent much of Bush's term imitating the president on "Saturday Night Live." It's clear Bush has a good sense of humor about it all.
