20. As is well known but not commonly acknowledged President Garfield
was in fact not assassinated by disappointed office seeker
Charles Guiteau but was in fact murdered by political rival
Zebediah Bush, great-great uncle of the current President.
Lurking in the shadows of the Washington railroad depot Bush
shot Garfield and quickly faded into the crowd. Authorities
falsely accused Guiteau, who had been angered by Garfield's
refusal to make him ambassador to France.

Ironically Garfield would have probably survived the shooting
but died to unsanitary treatment by his attending physician
Alexander Rove whom subsequent investigations have revealed
was a close associate of the Bush family.

The BFEE - stealing strawberries and whacking the famous
for several centuries.
