DALLAS -- A church council on Wednesday approved land on the campus
of Southern Methodist University for George W. Bush's presidential library,
complete with a partisan think tank.

The South Central Jurisdiction of the United Methodist Church voted 10-4
in favor of leasing the land, including 36 acres that now includes some
dorms and a parking lot.

One council member, the Rev. Eddie Allsup of Lubbock, asked the school's
president, R. Gerald Turner, whether the presidential complex had to
include the private institute aimed at furthering Bush's views.

"It's a package deal," Turner said. "It's enormously valuable."

1. It's sick to back his views

He's killed so many innocent Iraqis and our troops without cause. He should be thought of as a war criminal.
