First Lady Laura Bush and President George W. Bush are moving back to Dallas when the president’s term expires in January, the Associated Press is reporting.

The AP says the first lady’s press secretary confirmed Wednesday that the couple are purchasing a home in Dallas.

As I said earlier, Bush’s purchase of the ranch at Crawford in 1999 served the propaganda purpose of redrawing the man as a regular fella rather than the rich-brat, power and Washington connected, Yale attending elitist reality of the man’s past.  “Elite” is the nasty association to be avoided if you wish to play the populist card which is the top card – the absolutely necessary card – in the Republican deck.  So Bush was out “mending fences” and “clearing brush” for the photographers (all wonderfully satirized by Will Ferrill here… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkqrI3IibYI )

Recall the FEMA director’s emails that were revealed after Katrina, including one from his press secretary, Sharon Worthy titled “Your Shirt” where she instructed him to roll up his shirt sleeves…

 “Even the President rolled his sleeves to just below the elbow. In this crisis and on TV you just need to look more hard-working…ROLL UP THE SLEEVES!”

What a crowd of immoral bozos these people have been.
