Bush? Library?

bush_library.jpgOver at All Hat No Cattle they’re talking about the George W. Bush Presidential Library:

The Library will include:

The Hurricane Katrina Room, which is still under construction.

The Alberto Gonzales Room, where you can’t remember anything.

The Texas Air National Guard Room, where you don’t have to even show
up.

The Walter Reed Hospital Room, where they don’t let you in.

The Guantanamo Bay Room, where they don’t let you out.

The Weapons of Mass Destruction Room (Which no one has been able to
find).

The Iraq War Room. After you complete your first tour, they make you to
go back for a second, third, fourth, and sometimes fifth tours.

The Dick Cheney Room, in the famous undisclosed location, complete with
shooting gallery.

The Mike Luckovich cartoon sums it up pretty well.

Hold That Hard Line

After 49 years as Cuba’s dictator, Fidel Castro is stepping down.

The U.S. government won’t change its policy toward Cuba:

Bush and his top advisers made it clear yesterday that they do not intend to relax the trade sanctions and other policies aimed at isolating the Cuban government.

Sure, why would you change a policy that’s working so well?

Just think: if this country had engaged economically, culturally or diplomatically with Cuba during the past 46 years, we might have had to settle for something less than the complete triumph of U.S. interests. If we had talked with the Cubans, who knows how long Castro would have been dictator?
