"I've been here too long," he says.Indeed.

Jesus - - I'm surprised the rest of the world doesn't want to build a fence around the US, when they read stuff like this about Bush and know that we 'elected'* him. Fuck, Bush comes off sounding like he has the lackluster motivation/ambitions of a 3rd world dictator that the US installed in Central or South America back in the 1960's-80's. Where's all the 'respectability' that he was supposedly going to bring to office as the Reboob's candidate?
I know this country (like most in the world) has a signficant percentage of aware, smart, and compassionate individuals who collectively could start solving most of the problems we have, but if we keep electing shitheads like W, we/they might as well start the shut-down procedure on the US because we're doomed. We can only elect so many Nixons, Reagans, & Ws before we implode on our pretensions & empty hubris..
(* more or less -- or at least around 25-30% of the voters in this country were stupid enough to vote for him [TWICE!?!], another 30-40% didn't vote, and the Reboobs probably cheated on 1-5% of the votes)
It's an estate, not a ranch. I wish the press would correctly refer to it.
Wealthy sons and grandsons of wealthy people, with large houses on large properties, who do not raise livestock or grow crops, do not have ranches. They have estates.
I thought he was moving to South America where he can't be extradited.
