Arbusto

Why has no one mentioned that "Arbusto" is a really dumb name for a company. I don't recall anyone--anyone!--mentioning it as a joke in any way during the first presidential election that Bush "won."

Yeah, yeah, it means "Bush" in Spanish. But why not call it Bush Oil? He's an American, dammit! Why translate into Spanish? But Arbusto also sounds like a pirate blackjack dealer... "23...Arrrrr Busto" Plus it sounds like "Bust." So why is anyone no surprised that someone whose biggest business venture was named "Bust" and failed is not really that good of a businessman, much less president?
