Rage Redux: Changing Channels
GAIL COLLINS
Published: March 20, 2009

Let’s discuss the George W. Bush presidential library.
I am doing this as a public service. Our howling about government bailouts has sent Congress into a panic attack that’s getting out of hand. The White House economic team may not be all we hoped for, but let them work in peace for a few days without having to worry that some legislator in search of outrage creds is going to crash through the window and bite Tim Geithner on the ankle.

President Obama has asked us to direct our anger into constructive channels, and his loyal supporters are planning to get together over the weekend to collect signatures on petitions asking Congress to pass his budget. That certainly sounds like fun, but not really what I envision when I think of a rage channel.
A change of topic is required. We have tried to divert you with the story about the former “Project Runway” contestant who was arrested for assaulting her ex-boyfriend with a cat and Michelle Obama’s plan to plant rutabagas on the White House lawn. The president is even playing the dog card again. But nothing seems to work.

So let’s contemplate that library, which is more properly called the George W. Bush Presidential Center. A nonprofit foundation is trying to raise $300 million in tax-deductible donations for a huge complex on 25 acres at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Groundbreaking is scheduled for this fall.

Feeling a little irked? Excellent.

The center has several different functions, one of which is to showcase a collection of presidential memorabilia. Texas already has a museum for Lyndon Johnson and one for George H.W. Bush. You do have to wonder how many replicas of the Oval Office any one state needs.

The original Bush Presidential Library and Museum is at Texas A&M University, where visitors can see a “stunning replica of Barbara’s wedding gown,” a restored 1947 Studebaker, samples from the museum’s collection of more than 1,200 elephants and the family speedboat, Fidelity. Why can’t George W. just stick his knickknacks in there, too? They wouldn’t even have to change the name.

True, it might be tough to make room for the foundation’s planned “interactive decision theater,” where visitors “will have the opportunity to make their own presidential decisions.” Do you think we could uninvade Iraq?

The George W. Bush Presidential Center is, of course, planning to have a library. That’s a given for these kinds of monuments to ex-presidents, even if the one in question has done more than any chief executive in modern history to keep public records out of the hands of the public.

This is the guy who told federal agencies that whenever a citizen asked to see a document, the government should presume it was secret unless the petitioner could prove otherwise. Really, the best thing you could do for the Bush administration papers would be to put them someplace where George W. cannot get within 10 miles of them.

The final part of the center is going to be a think tank that was originally called the Freedom Institute. However, the Bush White House did such a thorough job in ruining the word “freedom” that the organizers seem to be rethinking that.

Its mission is to “further the domestic and international goals of the Bush administration.”

As James Traub wrote in The Times Magazine, the institute will be somewhat unique in that, while part of the university, it has no obligation whatsoever to report to the S.M.U. president or provost. It will instead report to the president of the Bush foundation, a former hotel executive who Bush once made ambassador to Costa Rica.

Thanks to that tax deduction, money donated to this enterprise is money that will not be going to help balance the federal budget.

Anger channeled yet?

It’s hard to believe that there are rich people, even in Dallas, who think the George W. Bush Presidential Center is the best possible use for excess cash at this particular point in history. We’re going to devote the next couple of months to torturing any employee of a bailed-out financial company who took a bonus. There ought to be a few minutes to spare for people who weigh all the nation’s competing needs, then decide that what the world needs most is a really good repository for W.’s White House treadmill.

Why does the Bush center need donations anyway? His administration believed the profit motive makes everything efficient — derivatives markets, health care, invasions. If he wants a monument, let him build an amusement park. Kids could compete in brush-clearing contests or slam-dunk at the George Tenet Basketball Court.

And rides. There would, of course, be lots of rides. After all, he took us for one.

YEAH GAIL COLLINS AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU CAN GO TO HELL ! I will ride you there !
