<IMG src="http://www.truthdig.com/images/masthead_newsletter.gif"> Hi, I read this on Truthdig and thought you would find it interesting. =-=-=-=-=-=-= Good Riddance Say it with us: former President Bush. After eight crazy years, George W. Bush is escaping to Texas, where he plans to work on his memoirs and, one imagines, clear some brush. He leaves a nation in despair. Perhaps his greatest achievement was scaring America into the arms of Barack Obama.
