Speaking of nobody wants *, has any place accepted his library?

[southerncrone]

Haven't heard any more on this since SMU said "NO, WAY!" :thumbsdown:

Has he just had too many scandals to deal with lately, or can he not find any takers? :shrug:

[madeline_con]

1. Will "My Pet Goat" be among the stack?

I want to see all the gwb43.gov emails, to see if the rumors on the internets are true.

[southerncrone]

2. "My Pet Goat" & a dictionary

:rofl:

Those e-mails may be why we haven't heard anymore about the "library". You'd think w/a librarian wife this would be a top priority.

But with just the 2 books.......why bother!

[argyl]

10. Yes,as will a considerable porn pile of vintage Hustler and Penthouse

magazines.

[Hardrada]

3. What about that General Goober College or whatever it was

out in North Dakota where Nixon gave his last speeces as prez?

[benny05]

4. I think it will be Baylor or TAMU

Baylor is near his home, whereas TAMU has the unique position to offer a father-son library of classified documents with blackouts.

Let me be clear: I have respect for TAMU and the Bush Library. It would be unique.

7. So you think he'd want to be "just like daddy"? He may have to ride in on daddy's coattails

to even get a library. Surely Baylor has more sense. SMU was smart to distance themselves. It will be fun to watch whereever it lands.

[freethought]

5. How about "Where's Waldo?" n/t

[southerncrone]

6. In this library, "Where's Cheney?"

;)

[saltpoint]

8. I'm thinking they might decide to house it in an out-of-business

barbeque shack somewhere.

Plenty of room left over for seating.

[aquart]

9. Did they really turn it down?

I thought they were just complaining. I never imagined they'd act on it.

[AshevilleGuy]

11. The periodicals section will be all My Weakly Reader... n/t

[w4rma]

12. I thought the board members loved the idea of hosting Bush's library.

I know it came out that almost all of the staff hated the idea.

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

13. I will take the Bush library,

I have been meaning to get some shelving installed in my basement and if it is free all the better, I can't see the Bush material amounting to more than half a foot of fonds,

[opihimoimoi]

14. Tonga might take it....plans call for it to be built on an Island 2 feet above sea level

[POAS]

15. Maybe that is why they bought land in Paraguay!

[Greyhound]

16. I'm certain that someplace in Texas let them build it, even if he has to

have daddy buy it for him. Everything is for sale in Texas.

[Eugene]

17. Yes. SMU agreed to take the Shrub library

and the right-wing think tank that comes with it.

It will be interesting to see how much will be left
to archive after the BushCo shredders are done.

[benny05]

18. It's not at done deal there

I hear there was some strong objections by faculty, particularly in the Theology school.

[southerncrone]

19. Understandably, the theology dept.

wouldn't want the devil on campus!

[benny05]

20. LOL! n/t

[Ouabache]

21. They could just put it in a Bookmobile, have Coulter drive it around

in a halter top to Klan rallies, and Freeper counter-protests. It would look nice next to the rented portolets.

[southerncrone]

25. Excellent!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Generic Brad]

22. You'd think it would be easy to find a home for a single bookshelf. n/t

[DesertRat]

23. Here's the future official site of the * library.

;-)

24. One of the local stations here reported it would be at SMU.

They didn't report on the delay and controversy behind it but that's typical. I am sure if it would be a Democrat, there would have had reports on it everyday.

[treelogger]

26. Old joke.

For immediate release: Fire in the white house

A fire in the white house has caused massive damage to the presidential library. Both books have been destroyed. The president is very distraught, as he hadn't finished coloring the second one yet.

By the way, jokes like this, and name-calling, and making fun of the shrub, are all nice and good and useful pressure relief valves. But to win the 2008 election, we have to take the opponent seriously. And as much as we make fun of Pres. Bush, he did win the election twice (maybe using unconventional means, but he is president, and neither Gore nor Kerry are).

[southerncrone]

27. Sadly.

[Skittles]

28. who the F*CK are you kidding????

that thieving bastard most CERTAINLY did not win the first election and it is highly likely he did not win the second one either....do NOT say that twit WON TWO ELECTIONS. :puke: The bastard STOLE THEM and I will never, EVER accept that lying, warmongering chickenhawk piece of SHIT as my president. NOT NOW, NOT EVER.
