Bush: Post-Presidency

Thanks to Shimmy's blog (see my favorites in the sidebar) for pointing out this editorial on how Bush should spend his time after leaving the White House. Here's an excerpt:

In a recent column, Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun-Times speculated on President Bush's post-White House plans. What should he do with himself?

Alice Collins of Oak Lawn has an idea.
"Three hundred and sixty-five days a
year, in the wind and snow of winter and the heat and humidity of summer, let
him tend to the graves of the almost 4,000 men and women who have given their
lives in the debacle of Iraq. They honored their oaths, obeyed their
commander-in-chief and sacrificed their lives of promise to a lying,
unprincipled warmonger. "He can begin at the grave of my grandson, Lcpl Jonathan
W. Collins, killed in action on 8/8/2004."

Amen.

Marine Lance
Cpl. Jonathan Collins of Crystal Lake was killed by enemy fire in the Al Anbar
province of Iraq in the summer of 2004. He was 19.
