George W. Bush and his wife, Laura, are expected to return to the White House later this month to be honored by President Barack Obama with the unveiling of their official portraits that will hang at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
The White House confirmed on Friday that the Bushes are slated to revisit their Washington home of eight years on May 31 for a rare joint appearance between the current and past president.
Additional details about the event, first reported by The Dallas Morning News, will be released in the next couple weeks, and we've put in a call to Bush's Dallas office as well.

I’ll bet he’d rather have a root canal! :)
Look forward to seeing the portraits, though. I wonder if
zero will put a footnote on them about what HE’S done these
last 4 miserable years!
Fox News showed the report on the ticker this evening
Hope they don’t have to spend the night. :-(
