SMU Appears To Be Winning the Prize of the Bush Jr. Library

According to U.S. News and World Report, Southern Methodist University might soon be home to the George W. Bush Presidential Library.

The article states “Once this library is built, there will be three presidential libraries in the Lone Star State;the others are the LBJ Library at the University of Texas–Austin and the George H. W. Bush Library at Texas A&M University in College Station.

The legacy of the younger Bush presidency is already written. It is the tragic aftermath of the invasion of Iraq and the failure to plan adequately for its consequences. Bush’s eagerness to leave the fighting in Afghanistan to invade Iraq has been a disaster.

Library planners will have to be miracle workers to put any kind of positive face on the occupation.”
