Fundraising - G. W. Bush Monument Committee
Dear Friends,

I have the honor of being named to the committee to raise $5,000,000 for a monument to George W. Bush. I am contacting you in the hope you will be willing to contribute to this noble cause. But first, a little about what the committee has been doing to date.

We originally wanted to put him on Mount Rushmore until we discovered that there was not enough room for two more faces. We then decided to erect a statue of George in the Washington , DC Hall of Fame. We were in a quandary as to where the statue should be placed. It was not proper to place it beside the statue of George Washington, who never told a lie
------- or beside Richard Nixon, who never told the truth--since Bush could never tell the difference!
We finally decided to place it beside the statue of Christopher
Columbus. He left not knowing where he was going; and, when he got there, he did not know where he was. He returned not knowing where he had been, decimated the well-being of the majority of the population while he was there, and did it all on someone else's money. As you can see, these two men have a great deal in common.

Thank you for your support.


George W. Bush Monument Committee


P.S. The Committee has raised $1.35 so far, so please be generous.

2. Bury him in a fucking oil well hole while he's still alive
Put a placard there and humans from around the globe will line up to piss in it.

4. I can't make....
....a donation at the moment, I'm a little tapped-out....

....but I am willing to donate some string and my prized used-condom collection to help decorate the monument....

5. Even if you gold plate it, how do you make a dog poop worth that much?

Now we just need to find the right artist to complete the project -

Oh, but wait - there's that money problem.
