1. Turn it into "Arlington West."
A park, a cemetery, and a place where family and friends of those hurt or
killed in his insane war can go .....

Bulldoze the house and build a "hall" where pictures of the dead can be seen.

2. It'll be turned into a theme park.
Edited on Mon Jan-01-07 07:49 AM by Kutjara
"Dubyah's World O' Bush".

There'll be rides and attractions themed to major events in Shrub's presidency, starting with "Choose the Prez" bingo and "Where's My Medicare" hall of mirrors; moving on to the terrifying "Iraq Fiasco" rollercoaster and "Flume O' Lies" water attraction; before finishing off with a unique ride that combines a hair-raising downhill mountain bike ride with pretzel-eating (and named, somewhat enigmatically, "Imagine.")

41. or maybe "Bush Gardens" -- if the copyright lawyers don't jump on it
As for the attractions -- don't forget "Poland"! There will be an EPCOT-type area to celebrate all the diversity of Bush's glorious Coalition of the Willing ... though after the eastern European countries, Italy, and the UK leave, they might have to shut that part of the park down. I guess they can always substitute the "Spaced-Out Mountain" Bush moon mission ride (though he hasn't been talking much about NASA lately).

They will probably have an animatronic Georgie to be the greeter, spewing out prerecorded Bushisms -- plenty to choose from!

Just like when a show closes, the set is broken down and returned to where it needs go.

9. I think he will try and keep the image. Cowboy George,
We can guess how he 'read' his college books. At the movies. He rode in on Custer's horse.

It is the hope that I live on. He will be gone from power eventually. Then we can heal.

13. Sell It And Go On The Lam To Paraguay?
I heard that they bought a big spread down there, making sure they have a place to abscond should we actually get serious and decide to arrest these people and show them better "mercy" they have EVER shown anyone else. I would hope We The People show more civil and moral turpitude than any of them have in their little finger. We are better than they have been because we are good,hard working sincere people and they are just greedy savages grabbing everything in sight so they live their pathetic lives shut up in their gated mansions. They think they can buy class when in truth they glue velvet on their barbarity and pretend their greed is something decent while painting it all over with fake religion.

And who has more class? A homeless person has more than these barbaric greedheads ever dreamed! I would rather than be poor and loved (and I know of what I speak). The Bushes and their ilk are miserly cannibals and I don't hate them, I pity them. Believe me pity and disgust is about all I can bring up. There is nothing else left.

George and Laura need to learn about the honest labor the rest of us do, they should be made to cut some REAL brush on the side of the hot Texan freeway ~ and I include Laura because she has gone along with all of this crap hook, line, and sinker. For the money. It is all about the money. Ask yourself, does she really loves George? Not even his own mother loves him! She went golfing the day after her own daughter died! Why would she care any more for any of her other children she spawned except to use them for her own gain? And make sure the Cheneys join them in the orange suits along with Rummy, and all their ilk! Perhaps that would teach them some humility and appreciation as to what they have forced others to do because these people have no problem hoarding all they can, leaving the rest of us to starve.

How disgusting and pathetic!

So the fake ranch should be sold and wouldn't it be justice if the money can be given to all those families who have lost loved ones in Iraq? Perhaps something good should come out of those fake smiles, fake religiousness and fake civility besides war, poverty and death. I am sure glad I do not have any of that karma on MY soul!

My 2 cents

16. If all goes badly...
...he'll sell it for a handsome profit and use the money to gussy up whatever overpriced McMansion he and Pickles are supposed to be buying in Highland Park, Tx.

If all goes well, he'll sell it at a loss in order to cover his legal fees. :)

very negative "karma" there? Sort of like buying the Amity House or Jeffry Dahmer "estate?"

29. They'll try to make it a kind of historical landmark. Just as with Reagan-
Bush Jr.'s reputation will receive a long and determined rehabilitation campaign in the media. He's a kind of symbol for conservatism. They have to make a hero out of him, if at all possible.

See, you all had a chance to assist him in his God-ordained mission to save us all from freedom hating mesquite, and you chose instead to make fun.

Too late will you realize your fate, when our brambly overlords gain their rightful place and mulch us all.
