“Bush heads to Texas for some quiet time”
“The Bushes announced this month they had purchased a $2.1 million, 8,500-square-foot ranch house on a cul-de-sac in the Preston Hollow neighbourhood of Dallas, near Southern Methodist University, the future home of Bush’s presidential library and museum.”

“The toney area is home to some of Texas’ most wealthy residents, a far different cultural setting than the remote 1,500-acre Crawford spread where Bush hosted world leaders and honed his image as a brush-cutting rancher-in-chief.”

“The Bushes ‘will continue to spend time at Prairie Chapel,’ said Sally McDonough, Laura Bush’s press secretary.”

Sheldon Alberts (Washington Correspondent). (2009, January 2). Bush heads to Texas for some quiet time. http://www.vancouversun.com/. Retrieved January 3, 2009, from http://www.vancouversun.com/Bush+heads+Texas+some+quiet+time/1135111/story.html

George W. Bush should not be spending his time finding a new house. He should be getting ready to undergo imprisonment or execution for murdering more than 4,000 U.S. service members.

1. "Quiet time".......a pacifier, a blankey, serious thumb-sucking.....
totally NAUSEATING image for someone who served (not elected) as President of the United States.

What an utter FAILURE!

3. Going home to lick his wounds.
He is such a sorry pathetic sight I almost feel sorry for him. I know a lot of people don't, but I just have no killer instinct.

19. Surely not even those people will pay him to speak!
He can't string ten words together without making 6 annoying pauses and a boneheaded mis-speak.

He is hardly a country man. It was for show and we all knew it.

13. Fake cowboy, fake ranch, hell, even the brush is fake
When we were in Crawford, we saw a truck bringing in the brush. That was a couple years ago and it still blows me away. Why the hell would you bring in fake brush? LOL

37. The brush stuff always got me. Did you know this
The last Czar of Russia and the last Kaiser of German also cut up trees etc in their spare time. Funny they were a lot like Bush and the things they did also. They also felt that God put them in their job. They also left the world and their countries in one big mess. Men should not get power by birth rights. It was one of the things were wished to change in this country. Talent is what we always need. A closed mind 'thinker' who believes God gave him the rights over others is just hardly an American we want of need in the WH. It is frankly un-Am. I know I am making a sort of silly comment.

16. Only 16 days left to burn up the rest of his vacation time
Like every retiring Government employee Bush is trying to burn up his use or lose vacation time before he leaves office.

21. He could be doing worse...
than keeping quiet and spending time in his Texas plantation.

Come to think of it, being quiet is probably the best that W. is capable of. Every time he opens his mouth or does anything in public, he makes things worse.

24. So he can spend time watching Fox News on the beginning of WWIV
Edited on Sun Jan-04-09 04:18 PM by formercia
unfolding in Gaza.

He also found a hidey-hole when things turned to shit in Georgia. Funny, he also was in a Florida hidey-hole on 9/11.

I hope he's disappointed.

How does he do it? He must be psychic, knowing when to make his travel plans.

36. Hey can Andrew Wang also remind GW's Loser Dad that he's a
bigger A-hole for hanging around news stations whining about how great his douchebag boy is? Even Fat Barb knows better than to do this.
