Bush needs no presidential library
All the My Pet Goat and coloring book jokes aside, Bush doesn't need a presidential library.

These libraries should really be called museums. In a presidential library you will find the history of the president's administration.

The things Bush will allow to be put in his library include the flight jacket from his carrier landing, a complete set of his White House Christmas cards, Barney's stuffed little carcass (he's probably got Barney a standing appointment to be euthanized the day he leaves office), the placard from the "Western White House: Crawford, Texas" and lots of photos from Iraq. It will look very much like the wall of a diner, and in fact they'll probably dress the place up as one. Bush would like that.

The things I would put in his library include a disarmed Iraqi landmine, the plastic turkey and a biographical sketch of every servicemember who gave his or her life in one of Bush's wars. Bush won't do that, so it's up to the left.

The things that REALLY need to be in there, Bush isn't going to release.

3. Remember the Counter-Clinton library?
We should plan to make a Counter-Bush library. Only this time, we might actually get the necessary funds needed to complete the project! :evilgrin:

5. And this statue should be in the center rotunda of his library
under the spotlights since it indicates the sum total of his legacy.

6. lots of photos from Iraq.
You can bet there'll be one of Shrubenfuhrer serving the Thanksgiving plastic turkey to the troops who had passed the loyalty test and were allowed to participate in the photo op.
