Former Mexican President Vicente “Even Blacks” Fox threatens to open the first ever Mexican Presidential Library Monday.
It’ll be great.
Es Muy, Muy Autentico! 
His web page is already filled with endless caption-less photographs the nature of which we can only speculate about. This appears to be the bottom of an alien transport vacuum device. 
Who’s coming to the opening?
Probably not Gorge Bush. President Bush started out all buddy-buddy, but despite their shared love of endangered species cowboy boots, Bush’s interest in close-in neighborhoods faded when a middle east tear-down became available. And more recently Fox called out Bush’s cowboy schtick, recalling that he was afraid of horses.
There’s always fellow after office investigatee Brian Mulroney.
Mulroney appears to have time on his hands, and he ought to done flogging his eleven hundred page memoirs by now.
Propaganda of the Losers 
Meet Mike Crapo. He’s Idaho’s “other” senator, the one who isn’t Larry Craig.
Crapo & Some Guy 
Mike wants you to visit our nation’s capitol, but for a guy from the Rocky Mountain West he seems awfully interested in steering you to Confederate tourist spots.
Crapo’s “Silver Mouse Award” winning Senate website alerts interested visitors that the capitol area is alive with history, mostly in the form of dead white men’s houses.
“Four of the first five U.S. presidents made Virginia their home. Within a few hours’ drive of Washington, DC, you can visit several homes and sites that were significant in the lives of George Washington, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe and other founding Fathers. You will find information below on Presidential homes as well as other historic homes that may be of interest.”
Crapo’s tour begins with Arlington House, the Custis-Lee Mansion smack dab in the middle of Arlington National Cemetary. Readers are thoughtfully informed that here Robert E. Lee wrote his tear-stained resignation from the US Army, but no tales of his war adventures, or how come all those bodies ended up in the front yard.
The Crapo crusaders find space to point to Lee’s birthplace, hours away from Washington, but miss out on the Lee Fendall House in nearby Alexandria, perhaps tainted by it’s past ownership by Mineworkers leader John L. Lewis.
Close Study 
The Methodist Church General Conference has voted to refer the fight over the Bush Library at Southern Methodist University to it’s regional body.
Initial reports had this as the Library’s end. Then the Dallas News Trailblazers blog rushed to assure:
The Bush lives!
“The Dallas blog Pegasus News is reporting that the “governing body of the United Methodist Church has come out against the George Bush Library being constructed on the campus of Southern Methodist University.”…Only problem is it isn’t true. Instead of approving a petition against the library, the UMC General Conference on Wednesday voted 844-20 to refer the matter to the South Central Jurisdiction’s conference scheduled for July in Dallas.”
Or maybe it’s another step closer to the grave. The Chicago Tribune‘s Swamp says Library opponents call the General Conference a victory that will force a real decision at the South Central meeting.
No Hope for Bush? 
The General Conference of the Methodist Church has come out against Southern Methodist University hosting the
George W. Bush Library. The Conference vote was 844 to 20.
SMU’s nominal landlord is the regional South Central Jurisdictional Conference, which meets in July, and may consider the matter.
