As our rough economy slouches toward bankruptcy, everyone's passing the buck. AIG. Citigroup. Jeremy Siegel. And now, weirdly, so is George W. Bush's biography at Whitehouse.gov.

Notably, in the original:

President Bush worked with the Congress to create an ownership society and build a future of security, prosperity, and opportunity for all Americans.

In the new version:

President Bush has worked to extend freedom, opportunity, and security at home and abroad.

Such appeasement would also fit in with Obama's center-center approach.

Yeah. Right.

Obama himself wants to have the image that he’s not vindictive, but he’s opening every door, revealing every file, and pushing anyone he can to go after “W” for him.
Crocodile smiles.

President Bush has worked to extend freedom, opportunity, and security at home and abroad.

He's going to use it to justify providing opportunities and security abroad.

He also extended intrusion rights to millions of Mexicans which is one of the reasons we lost in 2006 and 2008.

Bush and McCain helped put Obama in the White House.

Palin helped prevent a massive landslide.

Both Bush 41 and 43 were such useful tools in rehabbing Clinton’s image and getting bamster elected - perhaps they are getting ready to use them some more

Just trying to erase the memory of (Democratic) Congress’ role from this fiasco.
