Apologies if already posted

Subject: George W. Bush Monument

I have the distinguished honor of being on the committee to raise
$5,000,000 for a monument of George W. Bush. We originally wanted to
put him on Mt. Rushmore until we discovered there was not enough room
for two more faces.

We then decided to erect a statue of George in the Washington, D. C.
Hall Of Fame. We were in a quandary as to where the statue should be
placed. It was not proper to place it beside the statue of George
Washington, who never told a lie, or beside Dick Cheney, who never
told the truth, since George could never tell the difference.

We finally decided to place it beside Christopher Columbus, the
greatest Republican of them all. He left not knowing where he was
going, and when he got there he did not know where he was. He
returned not knowing where he had been, and did it all on someone
else's money.

Thank you.
George W. Bush Monument Committee
P. S. The Committee has raised $1.35 so far.

2. If elected to congress, I promise to sponsor a bill
to rename foreclosure notices "Bushes." I will sponsor a bill to name all bounced checks "Reagans," with a possible extension of that to all uncollectable debts.

3. Like that song says: Where were they going without ever knowing the way?
Cool song, great rift. Rather rock-a-billy.

7. Had a great live version of it from
the Letterman show. I think I taped over it. Damn. Studio version had this horrible, clinky piano part that I hated. I can just here the producer whining "but you have to put this piano part in, it will sell better."

5. May I suggest a Rodin-like" thinker" image of Bush on the toilet.
With him using the Constitution for tissue.

8. Instead of thinking, holding a book called "My Pet Goat"
upside down

Alternatively, falling from a Segway or holding a bag of pretzels

10. The statue must be cast from rhinestone-encrusted bullshit.
If it's going to be anything like a true representation of the pretzeldent.
