Even Bush's Hometown Texas Paper Sick of His Atrocious Record - Bush History,10/21
Bush's hometown Crawford Texas newspaper cites the atrocious Bush record as it moves from its 2000 Bush endorsement, urging readers to pick Kerry in 2004 over local boy George. South Carolina's biggest newspaper admits to the same mistake in 2008, and a long-time Bush insider adds his devastating judgment on the Bush record. Also, cows and "an arbolist" make Bushism appearances.

1. just in case you didn't know...
the Crawford ranch is a campaign prop.

They bought it before the election in 2000, and now they will be selling it.

I didn't know. If Bush leaves Crawford, it would put a damper on this prediction about the president's future...

“He will return, I expect, to his ranch, where he will be able to spend the rest of his life doing the only task for which he has shown any aptitude - cutting down brush with a chain saw”. Chris Hedges, truthDig.com contributor and former New York Times Middle East bureau chief

but it will be, mark my words.

they are house hunting in Dallas, where they actually "lived" before they bought the campaign prop.

Central Texas is still in a type of boom, they can get their money back and more.
