. sorry, mr. president. nagada, i never said it. in all of my years of government service i never once said nagada. dana garvey who you said there spoofing president bush on snl. he released a statement about the former president saying, this it was an honor and privilege to know and spend time with george h.w. bush for over 25 years. when i think of those times what i remember most is how hard we would laugh. i will miss my friend. revealing another side of the life of the former president george h.w. bush. in 2013 he shaved his head in support of the son of one of his secret service agents 2-year-old patrick. patrick was battling leukemia. it was a cause dear to the former president s heart.
