In the spirit of post-partisanship that we’ve all embraced, I’d like to reach out and extend an olive branch to President George W. Bush. He’s about to leave office and he’s said he’s unclear about what’s next for him. Well, I have an idea for him that will bring him some big money and provide the nation with some much needed economic stimulus.
Former President W should travel this great land in the Bushmoble; a glass encased Hummer that’s powered entirely by gasoline. Premium gasoline. He will go from town to town and meet people. The events will have something for people of both political persuasions. The opening acts will be Lee Greenwood and The Dixie Chicks.
Then the main event – the Bush. For $20 you can either shake his hand or flip him off, complete with a digital photo. For $100, you can either high five him or throw a shoe at him. Mr. Former President has shown he is both nimble and has a sense of humor about shoes being lobbed in his direction. He’ll be fine. Then Dick Cheney fires a shotgun in the air or at least in a general sort of ‘up’ direction and the event is over. On to the next town. God bless America, let the healing begin!
