In One Era and Out the Other

With our embarrassment of a president finally finishing out his last day in office, let's take a quick look at his legacy, courtesy of friend Spartacus. (And I mean "quick", too – I have an interview with big international firm in a little over an hour, plus some part-time work this evening and much of the rest of the week. Whee!) 
PS to George: Not only yes-we-can, but yes-we-did. Ave atque vale; populi jamdudum defutus est.

The George W. Bush Presidential Library is now in the planning stages.

The Library will include:

The Hurricane Katrina Room, which is still under construction.
The Alberto Gonzales Room, where you won't be able to remember anything.
The Texas Air National Guard Room, where you don't even have to show up.
The Walter Reed Hospital Room, where they don't let you in.
The Guantanamo Bay Room, where they don't let you out.

The Weapons of Mass Destruction Room, which no one has been able to find.
The National Debt Room which is huge and has no ceiling.
The "Tax Cut" Room with entry only to the wealthy.
The "Economy Room" which is in the toilet.
The Iraq War Room. After you complete your first tour, they make you to go back for a second, third, fourth, and sometimes fifth tour.
The Dick Cheney Room, in the famous undisclosed location, complete with shotgun gallery.
The Environmental Conservation Room, still empty.
The Supreme Court Gift Shop, where you can buy an election.
The Airport Men's Room, where you can meet some of your favorite Republican Senators.
The "Decider" Room complete with dart board, magic 8-ball, ouija board, dice, coins, and straws.
The museum will also have an electron microscope to help you locate the President's accomplishments.
This posting garnered a comment – but kudos really must go to the original writer, and a gigglin' thank-you to Spartacus:

Funny stuff — thanks for the laughs on the LAST DAY OF THE ERA!! Good luck with your job prospects — sounds a lot more hopeful than a lot of us have.
