Fact: The SEC never talked to Bush
Fact: The SEC (to my knowledge anyway) has never released the name of the party who bought Bush' stock
Fact: Bush had access to inside information about the company when he made the sale
Fact: Bush' father was President at the time (which by itself proves absolutely nothing, but at least raises the possibility that the SEC's decision not to pursue the matter might have been made for reasons other than the proper ones)
Fact: Bush is attempting to publicly take the lead in bringing about higher ethical standards in corporate America

I think Bush ought to start by taking the lead in encouraging complete openness about this old (and from all appearances very minor) matter. Just be open about it. That's all. Don't argue you were exonerated, or that it doesn't matter. We're not dumb. Just show us the facts, and let us decide.

End of rant.
