Bush's Library: Build it in Brownwood ?

Note from Steve, Since Bush is a member of the Brownwood Mafia and Brownwood needs some of that "economic development" (see SMU Presidents comment below), Bush should locate his library in Brownwood Texas ( Deep in the Heart of Texas ). Bush could get him some of that Brownwood Corporate Welfare like his "super fundraiser" friend over at
  • Home Depot
  • ! He should also build it in the Flood Plain like most of the other "out of town" developer projects currently taking place in Brownwood. If not in the flood plain, maybe they could place the Bush Library in the Historic Downtown Brownwood Hotel
  • with the Vote Republican Banner
  • Q: Would there be a Jeff Gannon Suite ? Would there be room for a state of the art Drug Rehab and Recovery Center in Bush's Library ?
  • is one needed in Bush Country?

  • Brownwood's Legendary Republican Propaganda Minister, James Williamson (see Brownwood Hate Radio), could be in charge of Media and Public relations ! This project would be a great "tourism" coup for the City of Brownwood and The Brownwood Chamber of Commerce. The Bush Library could be promoted at the upcoming Brown County Area Chamber of Commerce "Mafia Ball" ( April 12, 2007 see their website ). For The Bush Presidential Library Marketing and Advertising campaign, Brownwood Native and Advertising Guru ( also a recent inductee into the Brownwood Mafia ), Roy Spence (see GSD&M) could be employed to help spread the word ! He's the Best ! Be sure to pick up a copy of his recent book " The Amazing Faith of Texas". I did, and It's moving ! The Mafia and Religion ? Another added bonus to locating Bush's Library in Brownwood would be the influx of traffic to Brownwood which would most likely include air traffic. This could be the beginning of "Mafia Air" based in Brownwood. This may be the only way that Brownwood would be able to support a commercial airline venture ! ( There is a long history there ! ) Imagine the possibilities and think outside the Box ( The "Big Box" that is ! ). Visitors to Brownwood could choose from numerous ( and growing ! ) Taxpayer Subsidized Corporate Chain Restaurants, Hotels, and Retail Establishments. I'm an Independent Texan ( who never voted for G.W. Bush as Governor or as President), but I can put my political differences aside if it means helping Brownwood reach it's " True, "Feels Like Home" Advertised and Promoted, Potential " ! Not only would Brownwood " Feel Like Home", it would "Feel Like Bush " ! Visitors to Brownwood would also find a very "Religious" community of 19,000(?) filled with almost 100 Churches. Brownwood and the Bush Library appear to be a match made in Texas !

    Methodist ministers petition to stop Bush library at SMU
    10:46 AM CST on Thursday, January 18, 2007

    Associated Press
    DALLAS - A group of Methodist ministers from across the nation launched a petition drive Thursday urging Southern Methodist University to stop trying to land George W. Bush's presidential library.
    The petition on a newly created Web site, ProtectSMU.org, says that "as United Methodists, we believe that the linking of his presidency with a university bearing the Methodist name is utterly inappropriate."
    "Methodists have a long history of social conscience, so questions about the conduct of this president are very concerning," said one of the petition's organizers, the Rev. Andrew J. Weaver of Brooklyn, N.Y., who graduated from SMU's Perkins School of Theology.
    SMU officials did not immediately return calls from the Associated Press seeking comment Thursday.
    SMU emerged as the apparent winner in the library competition last month when the site selection committee said it was entering into further discussions with the 11,000-student, private university, which is first lady Laura Bush's alma mater.
    Some faculty members also have complained that the library complex's think tank dedicated to the philosophy of the Bush administration would hurt the school's reputation.
    But at a faculty meeting Wednesday, SMU President R. Gerald Turner said those fears were unfounded. He said among the library's benefits were increasing the school's visibility nationwide and spurring economic development in the city.
