Remembering history the way they wished it had been
Brace Yourself for Disappointment, Lad 
Canadian pol Bob “He Too Has Known Disappointment”Rae takes us back to our Nation’s Capitol in the fifties. Dick Cheney’s Fortress of Solitude at the Naval Observatory was decades away, and Vice Presidents walked amongst us.
Or at least resided. Rae says he served as Nixon’s paperboy, and his Christmas tip amounted to ten shiny pennies.
Cox Up 
Fresh from his triumphant McCain delegate campaign in New York’s Republican primary, Nixon son-in-law and top chop Eddie Cox is wrestling with the big questions.
In an apparent debut as political pundit and prognosticator, Eddie says the Nixon method could resurrect fallen Governor Eliot Spitzer.
The prescription: “writing and doing things”
Brace yourself for a relentless parade of forgettable titles. 
The Dallas Morning News reports that George Bush has found the Imagineers for his Presidential Library.
Dan Murphy and the PRD Group have been qquietly burrowing away since 2007, and they promise much.
Murphy says the Bush exhibits will cover the presidency [Make Way for the Unitary Executive!], and both America and the American Experience!
Who are these tour guides of History’s Path?
The PRDists have already served America, developing such stirring exhibits as the Smithsonian’s “First Ladies: Political Role and Public Image.”
Who’s Had Some Work Done?
We can look forward to hard-hitting analysis of little known chapters such as:
“From the exuberant Dolley Madison and troubled Mary Todd Lincoln, to the humanitarian Eleanor Roosevelt and the intriguing wives of our recent presidents, the exhibition celebrates the remarkable individuals who have occupied this demanding post.”
The introduction peaks with a quote from the Everfeisty
Betty Ford:
“I do not believe that being First Lady should prevent me from expressing my views . . . Being ladylike does not require silence.†— Betty Ford
….not mentioning that her saucy spark in this period was stoked by her copious use of prescription drugs.
Where will PRD’s Vision Quest take us? The Dallas Morning News offers clues.
“Work on the design of the Bush library and museum has only just begun, but the selection panel initially asked SMU and other applicants to consider many possible features for the complex, including:
•An IMAX or film theater 
•Permanent exhibit space 
•Traveling exhibit space 
•Gift shop and cafe 
•Video classrooms 
•Performing arts space 
•An apartment or residence facilities for George W. Bush and his wife, Laura” 
One Man, Our Vote 
Greg Grandlin offers a roundup of one interested party’s role in the last twelve presidential elections, and perhaps on his last one.
“Fidel Castro, the First Superdelegate” clocks el Lider Maximo’s walk-ons and cameos over five decades.
Vote Early & Vote Often 
President Bush bumps along at record low popularity, but he is still apparently beloved in Troy, New York.
A video instalation intitled The Night of Bush Capturing stoked the ever hot outrage of the local College Republicans, eventually being run out of both Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and a local art center[the latter for alleged building code violations coincident with a picket line by local Republicans].
Leading the charge is local pol Robert Mirch.
“Allowing for the portrayal of the assassination of a president to be staged is wrong, un-American and destructive.”
Let’s enjoy some examples! 
That’s The Stuff!
