But it was probably named after someone who was worth naming
a street after.
Its Time to Change the name of Bush Streetby Paul Hogarth‚ Apr. 16‚ 2007

I’m serious. While Bush Street in San Francisco was not named after our current President, it is ironic to have a City that has never supported this Administration to have a street with the same name. Residents and tourists alike are reminded of George Bush when they see it, and with America’s image tarnished by his actions it can only be a bust – not a boost – to our local economy. Street names have been changed before, and there is no reason why the City can’t afford the nominal cost to modify a few street signs. The Board of Supervisors should pass legislation changing the name of Bush Street – it’s San Francisco Values.
