Any reading suggestions for Bush's summer vacation.
He just finished "My Pet Goat" and is looking for some easier reading.

3. Why not "An Inconvenient Truth"?
It's got lots of pictures from him to look at while Laura reads it to him.

15. Good one...since he's sworn an oath to preserve, protect and defend it...
Unfortunately, Chimpy himself is the biggest domestic enemy of our Constitution.

8. In all seriousness,...
...what was the book he was reading to the kids on 9/11? I've searched Amazon.com for My Pet Goat and The Pet Goat, but no luck.

13. Here ya go again.
"The Pet Goat" (erroneously known as "My Pet Goat") is a children's story contained in the book Reading Mastery II: Storybook 1, by Siegfried Engelmann.

10. A subpoena to the Hague War Crimes Trials would be interesting.
Or, "Rules for Prisoners" at any respectable penitentiary.

16. Here's a whole series for him
This series should be enough to keep him busy for a least a year. I'd recommend my book, but he's in it and Condi says it's important not to upset him. Besides it's way over his head.
