A computer hacker has broken into the email accounts of some of the family members of former presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush.

The hacker has already posted tons of stolen material, which he/she reportedly got from the AOL account of Dorothy Bush Koch, 53, Dubya’s little sister.

Among the treasure trove of items hacked? Private pictures of 88-year-old President George H.W. Bush while he was being treated in the hospital.

Sensitive photos and information were obtained by the hacker, including a four digit code needed to enter George W. Bush’s home security gate.

The hacker also claimed to have addresses and contact information for Bush family members, including both former presidents and their children.

The Smoking Gun reports that the hacked email accounts include several family members and their correspondence with other family and friends.

Reports indicate that “In e-mail exchanges with the person who claimed responsibility for the hack, the individual claimed to have swiped ‘a lot of stuff.’”

One email to friend Willard Heminway from Brit Hume after the 2012 election results reads, “Election outcome disappointing, but there are many silver linings.”

The emails also show details on how serious George H.W. Bush’s health was in late December, when he was hospitalized; his funeral was being planned.

OH, and the hacker also claimed to have obtained photos of paintings George W. Bush has been working on, “including self-portraits of him showering and in a bathtub.”

Seriously.
