and other events through the 17th.

It's good to see that the torture president's airbrushing is being bucked by SOMEBODY.

Also, if you haven't seen it already, there's a non violent direct action out of FaceBook here:

with a thread just for DU (come in and represent!):

The People's Response
to the George W. Bush Library & Policy Institute

Accountability for the past. Democracy for the future!

Accountability is the hallmark of a mature democracy: no one is above the
law! Remind past, present and future administrations that the
truth cannot be buried or changed, and remind the public that the same
ideologues who crafted the Bush policies of the last decade will be writing
a script for our future. Will this think-tank develop the same kinds of
policies that brought us pre-emptive war, economic crisis, environmental
disaster, unprecedented presidential power and diminished civil and human
rights? Act now to prevent history from repeating itself!

A peaceful, nonviolent march & rally will coincide with the George W. Bush
Presidential Center groundbreaking. Join us for a series of events that
will move us toward accountability for the past and democracy for the
future!Dallas, Texas

3. But I wanna see the "Vacation Theatre"
   
where I can learn about Dear Leader's valuable time away from those pesky "Bin Laden Determined To Strike U.S." memos and celebrate the most-vacationed pResident in U.S. History.

Yeah I remember his trip to Spain oh wait that was Michelle.
Ok there was that time after his party lost the election he went to India to see the festival of lights.
Oh wait that was Obama.
At least Obama gave up golf because we were at war. Oh wait I was confused again that was Bush.

8. I know. If Code Pink or World Can't Wait or anyone arrested Bush successfully   Updated at 4:41 PM
   
Amy Goodman might be the only one to cover it.

Amy and DU.

Oh please please please one of you moonbats try that I'm begging you.

[Duke Nukum]

Obama and Doug's stupid ex-wife are united by one thing: their shared stupidity.

Obama and Doug's stupid ex-wife are united by one thing: their shared stupidity.

I swear; she's gunning for TOP DUmmie OF 2010.

Doug's stupid ex-wife has usually been pretty highly ranked, but never number one.

We'll see, though; there's plenty of talent.

I just thought of something.
Rove was brilliant in having Bush release his book right after the election.
The left is already pissed off for losing the house, now Bush is on TV driving them insane all over again.

Closing Remarks
Wednesday, November 17
5:00 p.m. Truth & Accountability Teach-In, Gateway Center, Rm 132,

I swear on everything I hold dear...

To whoever first came up with the brilliantly insipid practice of putting a f*cking verb in front of an "-In" : I am going to find what you love most in the world, and I'm going to destroy it.

Amen.

Damn hippies.

[IassaFTots]

Oh God Bless.  Today I had a dentist appointment @ 7:30, so I came in late.  Was delayed WAY more than I thought I should have been because my direct route took me through this, a Bush book signing. 

Only a handful of protesters showed up this morning carrying signs that read "No one is above the law" and "Torture is illegal," referring to the former president's support of waterboarding as an interrogation tool. They were greeted with a chorus of boos and quickly escorted away.

 http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/111010dnmetbushsigning.211d60f7c.html

In all the time since W moved to Dallas, it is the only time I can recall that traffic was obstructed for him. 

What a bunch of blowhards.  I know we have Liberals here, based on the voting records, but damned if I can find em anywhere. 

[littlelamb]

The stupid DUmmies when they are pissed it cheers me up 

[AprilRazz]

I swear; she's gunning for TOP DUmmie OF 2010.

Doug's stupid ex-wife has usually been pretty highly ranked, but never number one.

Now that the greenbriar primitive is out of the way it is pretty open for her.

If an old growth tree fell on a bunch of of Earth First wackos, would any one hear it?

[BEG]

Give it up already losers. No one cares. You will only make Bush more appealing to more people. He is a better person than Obama could ever hope to be. Are you going to charge Obama with war crimes for using predator drones to drop bombs on "brown people" or for continuing two "unjust" wars?  ****ing hypocrites.

[Ralph Wiggum]

Geez, that guest list for the "protest" sounds like a who's who of moonbats.  But where's Michael Moore and/or the Ditch Bitch Cindy She-hag?  And Wee Willie Pitt wearing his cowboy hat?  How about some 9/11 troofers to complete the insanity, like Alex Jones?  That would be an all-star cast.

[njpines]

I ended up watching the whole hour of Hannity's interview with Bush last night.  I hadn't intended to but I found myself not wanting to change the channel. It was refreshing listening to a President who actually loves America and its citizens, not a cold idealogue who is looking for ways to "transform" the country into what he thinks it should be.

Can you post the link to that, maybe? I couldn't find it! 

[Karin]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....snort...what?  Oh sorry, I fell dead asleep just reading the schedule of events.  I swear I'm going to strive to be a very good person, and do good deeds every day, and say my prayers, because that is exactly what Hell will be.  Earnest ugly moonbats in sensible shoes, droning on endlessly.  No cocktail party on the schedule, no fun to be had, anywhere.

Seven minutes in, my boyfriend called me to let me know it was on.  "Let's get these Assholes."  heh.  It was very refreshing indeed.  

Here ya go, HWC.
