A Fitting Legacy

Blogged under Politics, Smirk by Mr. Sandman on Wednesday 9 July 2008 at 8:44 am

Some presidents have monuments named after them: Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt.

Others have schools and universities named after them, like Kennedy.

A few are remembered during our morning commutes: Reagan, Eisenhower, and Lincoln.

Some are rather obscure– there isn’t a whole lot out there commemorating Rutherford B. Hayes, or Millard Fillmore.

A few are considered so atrocious that there is very little out there honoring them, such as Franklin Pierce and Warren Harding.

So what will happen when Smirk leaves office? A few people have already jumped the gun, and are ready to honor him. I found their idea a rather fitting one. The Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco is suggesting a sewage plant be named in honor of George W. Bush.

It’ll probably be shot down before it’s placed before the voters to approve, which is a shame. I think it’s a great way to honor the man who brought us the last 7 1/2 years: the George W. Bush Sewage Plant. It takes answering the call of nature in the bushes to a whole new level.
