BFF! 
In the tradition of his predecessors, George W. Bush has proudly affirmed he’ll take overseas money for his Presidential Library, and makes no promises he’ll disclose any of it. Bush spoke to a news conference last week.
Q Any restrictions on who can give? Will you take foreign money for this?
THE PRESIDENT: Yes, I’ll probably take some foreign money, but don’t know yet, Ken. We just haven’t — we just announced the deal and I, frankly, have been focused elsewhere, like on gasoline prices and, you know, my trip to Africa, and haven’t seen the fundraising strategy yet. So the answer to your question, really, I can’t answer your question well.
Q Where does the people’s right to know this fit into all that?
THE PRESIDENT: We’re weighing, taking a look, taking consideration, giving it a serious consideration. Nice try, though.
Kennedyesque, Or Merely Kennedyish? 
The son Jack Kennedy never had now alleges conspiracies he can’t explain.
Jack Worthington has a problem. Having outed himself as a possible illegitimate child of John F. Kennedy, and with Vanity Fair casting doubt on his story, the Canadian resident has been reduced to throwing out crackpot theories about how other Kennedy stories are being circulated to distract attention from his fascinating self.
That’s his version of the Dallas District Attorney miscellaneous assassination file release.
Worthington told The Vancouver Sun:
“I think anyone would have to question the timing…It’s just my hunch that this DA decided to come clean partially because he [or the investigators] feared something would be exposed by the Vanity Fair story.”
Good luck on that Jack!
Worthington offered many delights before his story sank, not least of which was the triumphant return of ex George Bush sister-in-law Sharon Bush, former wife of Bush family Wastrel whore-hound Neil Bush. The former Worthington girlfriend played an auxiliary role in his negotiations with the magazine.

“Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them.” Ronald Reagan
In the spirit of Ronald Reagan, Indiana is pondering finishing a broke and incomplete local Ronald Reagan Parkway by swapping it for a state road. Indiana would pay for the Parkway, while local government would take over maintenance on state highway 267.
Hendricks County was trying to Cargo Cult it [“Build the Runways and the Planes Will Come”], launching the road with no money, but a dream. Despite tapping federal earmarks, they’ve failed to persuade even smaller governments to pick up the tab, and now propose collapsing into the arms of the state.
Indiana is already home to the Ronald Reagan Expressway, Interstate 469, part of the nation’s ever growing number of people, places and things named for the beloved former leader.
Pat Answers? 
Perhaps America’s only Pat Nixon poem, an excerpt:
“Dropping eggs
Fertilizing
Hearing smelling
Biting and eating life still living as it
Thrashes and squirms in pain as it is
Savored in the mouth of other life . . . ?”

Barack Obama has swept a mock election at Laura Bush alma mater and would be future home of the Bush Library, Southern Methodist University.
