Dumbo already out on the speech circuit, "filling his coffers"
UGH... it amazes me that anyone would pay that idiot to speak.

Like his brother Jeb and wife Laura, Bush has signed with the Washington Speakers Bureau to make appearances in the U.S. and abroad. Asia and Europe are already on the calendar. So far, according to Mike Allen of Politico.com, Bush has 10 speeches lined up for this year with others to come.

His first speech is scheduled for the convention center in Calgary, Alberta on March 17 to a predominantly business group; it's being billed as a two-hour conversation with Bush, closed to the media. Through the oil and related businesses, Calgary has countless commercial connections with Texas and also is the Canadian city with the largest American population.
