Macleans online reports:

The Dallas Morning News reports the invitations are already in the mail: A chance to hear George W. Bush “share his thoughts on his eight momentous years in the Oval Office,” live, in Calgary, on March 17. The event is not open to the public and is so far away from the Washington nerve centre, or any other U.S. hub, that it screams dry run. Welcome to the lucrative world of the speaker’s circuit, Mr. President.

Set faces on “stunned”! Can we get him on the undesirables list in time?

  1. “A chance to hear George W. Bush share his thoughts on his eight momentous years in the Oval Office”…

    Isn’t anyone there worried that this speech is going to be two minutes long?

    I’m more interested in finding out what happens if the teleprompter breaks down. Get him off topic and he says the darndest things!

  2. Yes, well, most Texans aren’t nearly as happy to see him as he thought we’d be. In fact, the “welcome home” party at the airport was upstaged by the “choke and die” gathering in downtown Dallas. Not, unfortunately, that the demonstration got the press it should have.

  3. Ha! Were they throwing pretzels?
