(09-30) 13:35 PDT Kennebunkport, Maine (AP) --

Former president and World II naval aviator George H.W. Bush has been honored by some of his neighbors in Kennebunkport. The group unveiled a Navy anchor and a plaque acquired as a way to thank Bush for his service as president and for being a good neighbor.

Bush spoke briefly Wednesday to his neighbors in Maine after they surprised him with the 6,000-pound anchor and plaque. They were placed at a turnout that overlooks Bush's Walker's Point coastal estate.

Bush also was given a painting showing the anchor in the foreground with Walker's Point and his speedboat in the background.

After talking with neighbors, Bush invited them on a tour of his family's estate.

I am firmly in favor of giving him an anchor - to swim with.

That's what I was hoping it was.

With his boating buddy Bubba Clinton impaled on one of the anchor hooks.

We could go on forever with all the traitors who could be on this trot-line to hell.

It would probably extend across the Atlantic, at least.

It would probably extend to Israel, at least.
