4. Dunno what KClown is talking about.. but maybe they read this....

Someone posted George W. Bush's obituary on the General Discussion section here the other night. They found it in something called "City Pages" out of Minneapolis/St. Paul and the author wrote it last year.

Regarding term limits, one section of the obituary says this:

..."When Democrats attempted to "poison" the amendment by proposing that all restrictions on who might become president be removed (the requirement that a president be at least 35 years old, the two-term limit), the Republicans immediately acquiesced, and as a result of the passage of the 28th Amendment in 2006 and its ratification by the states the next year, in 2008 Mr. Bush announced his candidacy for a third term. He was overwhelmingly defeated that November by former President Bill Clinton"

It's a VERY WEIRD obituary!!
