Following precedent dubya will probably want to write his memoirs about his WH yrs. What topics can he cover? "How we established the Al-qaida/Iraq connection","How I managed to screw up our fine boys' achievements", "How stimulating my tax cuts were to our great corps."? Frankly I'm at a loss about his other achievements so please fill in the blanks..... Who'll be his ghost writer, Rove? As an ex-prez. his transformation to a statesman will require a presidential library so the question is who'll finance the building it.Will it be by income from his memoirs, or by contributions from his friends in the corporate world or the House of Saud? Considering his accomplishments what would be an appropriate library size? 100'x100' or more? welcome to pitch in!

He's admitted that he doesn't like to read?  How about just a TV room with some prezels, and some drinks?  Oh, and since he's shucked his Maine roots and become a Texan, it should be big.  Everything's big in Texas, ya know.

Personal Anecdotes :

How I looked into Condi's eyes, and wished Laura was history?

How I looked in Ari Sharon's eyes, and never realized I was being bamboozled?

How I looked into Carl Rove's eyes, and he told me what I was seeing?  And whether it was good, bad, or neutral?

How I looked into Laura's eyes, and momentarily felt a surge of sympathy for gay marriage?  And considered jumping off the wagon?

How I looked into the eyes of my niece, the fashion model, and thought, whoa, the religious right would never forgive me?

Substantive Political Topics :

How I stood up to the religious right

How I formulated sound economic policy.

How I carefully used US power in the world to the positive benefit of the US and mankind more generally.

How I served the interests of all American, impartially.

How I demonstrated personal and political leadership in troubled times.

How I burnished the image of the US in the world community.

How I resisted the waves of political hysteria to which domestic politics is often suspectible.

How I tried to build bridges to my political opponents.

How I demonstrated respect for, and strengthened, the rule of law both domestically and internationally.

I'm thinking this will be a very slim volumn.
