I haven't paid too much attention to the Bush Library hoopla but I just found out that the site selected had a condo on the property where people OWNED their own homes and are being evicted for the library. That's absolute bullshit - can't they find an abandoned crackhouse or methlab somewhere and build the library there?

Eviction, mystery and accusations are the latest events in the advance of the proposed Bush presidential library at SMU.
Today federal agents marched in this morning with eviction notices in hand.
The last two residents of the University Gardens condominiums got orders to leave this morning.
But not before a mysterious break-in last night.
Three days ago Gary Getton showed us some of his legal papers in his ongoing fight with SMU over eviction from the condo he rents.
Last night, he says his property was burglarized.
All that was stolen, he says, were his documents.
He's suspicious.
"We own a percentage of the condos and that's why we're staying and fighting pretty much," he said.
