13. Large, wall-draping pictures of himself in front of flags.
They're needed to provide a proper backdrop for all the statues of him.

And somewhere off in a corner are his speeches printed off the WH website, and a dog-eared copy of "The Very Hungry Caterpillar".

33. Audio books ...

Bush doesn't read. He has his wife and Condi (what's the difference?!?!?!) read to him.

I suppose they would put some picture and coloring books in their as well. And of course, the complete Tele-Tubby collection will be avialable on viewing monitors!!! But READING will be FORBIDDEN in the Bush library!!!!

37. No, no, no, no - you're all thinking the wrong way
The library is going to be filled with shelves of those fake books - you know, frontage of fake hollow-backed book spines that look like Reader's Digest Condensed Books. The titles will say stuff like "World Politics, 11th edition" and "History of America, 15th edition"
