There was a time in my life when I wasn't likely to be found in a library, much less found one.

. . . the latest, grandest example of the eternal struggle of former presidents to rewrite history.
~ President Bill Clinton at the Library Opening
We've had enough Bushes.

Disasterpiece Theater . . . the Hard Rock Cafe of catastrophic policy decisions.

What a bu!!sh*t rewriting of history. . . . They’re presidents. They’re not King Tut. Why do we have to build a mausoleum?
~ Bill Maher
The Bush Presidential Library is beautiful, and they have a huge section devoted to weapons of mass destruction, but nobody can find it.
~ David Letterman
In President Bush's high school yearbook, he was voted least likely to have a library named after him.
~ Jay Leno

. . . “It looks like a theme park as much as it is a library,” according to Lou Dubose, co-author of “Bushwhacked: Life in George W. Bush’s America.” Dubose points out the library also includes freedom tower, a freedom plaza, a decision points library, the bullhorn Bush used to talk to first responders from ground zero, and even Saddam Hussein’s pistol.
“It’s kind of a parentheses around one of the greatest foreign policy blunders in our country’s history and they’re pretty shameless about it.”
. . . Dubose describes the “triumphalist narrative” on display at the library as “a neo-con rehash of all the terms that were used to lead the country into war.”
“One would expect a little bit of a modesty from a president who has presided over that sort of failure,” he said. “And from a president who’s competing in the bottom ten in terms of presidential rankings that are done by legitimate historians.”

Bush ceremony had vaguely Soviet aura: severe, drummer-lined facade; red army hats; loud chorus: insecure overkill hiding undermining Truth.

All kidding aside, the Bush Library curators aren't doing their job if they don't have "My Pet Goat" under glass.

"The George W. Bush Library" has the same awkward ring to it as "The William Howard Taft Gym".
