[kj] ot - bush monument/museum

[FLIGHT BRINGER]

Oh I see.
     So he did nt spend a few years fund raising in order to build this new 
library so that underprivileged people can go and hire books for a 1$ per 
week, or so that people with time on their hands can go and read The New 
York Times or surf the net on communal computers for a minimal charge ?  So 
he did nt try to give something back to the community?
   Because thats what I understand the word Library to mean.
