Don't say that former President Bush hasn't been hit by the crumbling economy he handed off to President Obama. Friends tell us that it has slowed the drive to raise some $500 million to build and endow the George W. Bush Presidential Center at Dallas's Southern Methodist University. "It's a bad environment," says one. Bush is taking no chances: He's making donor calls himself, and even his dad, the 41st president, is helping out, as are former aides like Karl Rove. In the future, say associates, look for Bush to host fundraising events in order to meet a goal of completing construction in 2013. But for now, "he's laying low," says one.

7. Maybe thats why he is going to Canada to give that speech....

He is doing it to raise money for his library... ugh Still can't believe that anyone would be stupid enough to pay this guy to give a speech, cause he can barely talk at best.

13. I've gotten robocalls from the 'Licans before . . .

Even on my cell in Romania and Australia (you'd think demon diallers would prevent that). I'm just dying for my personal call from Schimpanski.

19. I'm hoping for a museum, I've got some great ideas

They could have a goat as a living installation piece, a map with the country of Iraq mislabeled as Afghanistan, the WMD exhibition would just be a sandbox, there could be a whole Shoe Wing. The nightly band at the museum would be, of course, the Tax Cut Tenors.
