The Bush Presidential Library
I just read that there are already discussions about the Bush (Lite) Presidential library and where
to locate it, blah, blah.

Doesn't a president have to be literate before they dedicate a library to him, or do photo galleries
now fall under the rubrik of libraries?

1. All they need is a bathroom at some TX university
and one book. Or may be a Readers Digest would do.

9. Folks settle down - Bush's library will be an audio library with.......
..... lifesize puppets of Cheney pulling Bush's string while Bush reads "Jack and Jill Went Up The Hill". They are sure Bush can at least get the first couple of pages right by dedication day. :sarcasm:

10. It will probably be here in Dallas at SMU
More ammo for those here who despise Texas, and especially Dallas.

13. SMU is suppose to be the front runner for this library
Pickles went to SMU and SMU has some land set aside for the library. Baylor is trying to get the library and Baylor has more land that is available and is closer to crawford. My best guess is that SMU will win this "contest."

16. if his approval rating gets any lower, it'll be "You take it!" "No, YOU!"
All the universities will start to wonder if they really want their names associated with Dubya!
