    Talking Bush to Hit Lecture Circuit......in Canada

    Bush to hit lecture circuit with speech in Canada
    48 minutes ago


    http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/...58HFwD96AAGM81

    DALLAS (AP) — Former President George W. Bush is getting ready to hit the lecture circuit.

    A co-owner of a Canadian company that organizes high-profile speaking events confirmed Thursday that Bush is scheduled to speak March 17 at a luncheon in Calgary, Alberta.

    The invitation says Bush will discuss "his eight momentous years in the Oval Office" and "the challenges facing the world in the 21st century."

    The event is Bush's first confirmed speaking engagement. Booking agency partner Andy McCreath declined to discuss Bush's speaking fee. A spokesman with the Office of George W. Bush in Dallas also declined comment.

    McCreath says he expects about 1,500 people to attend the speech. Event sponsors include the Calgary Chamber of Commerce, an accounting firm, a law firm and an organization for financial analysts.

    According to a story sourced via CBS News (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/...n3927378.shtml), as of March 11, 2008 President Bush had racked up over 870 days at his ranch in Crawford, Texas during his two terms. Technically then, he did not spend "eight momentous years" in the Oval Office.

    George W. Bush to give talk in Calgary
    Updated Thu. Feb. 12 2009 7:38 PM ET

    The Canadian Press

    CALGARY -- A Calgary audience might be the first group to hear George W. Bush's take on the state of the world since he stepped down as U.S. president earlier this year.

    Bush is to speak to an anticipated audience of 1,500 at a private event in the city on March 17, according to organizers Andy McCreath and Christian Darbyshire.

    "It's our understanding it's one of the first -- if not the first -- times he'll speak since leaving office," said Geoff Pradella, vice-president of public and government affairs at the Calgary Chamber of Commerce, which is partnering in the event.

    "I imagine it'll be a reflection on issues that arose during his time in office, and maybe drawing from that his perspectives on the way forward."

    Darbyshire declined to give details on how much tickets will cost, what Bush will speak about or whether the former president is being paid for his appearance.

    A spokesman with the Office of George W. Bush in Dallas also declined comment.

    Invitations to the event say Bush will share his thoughts "on eight momentous years in the Oval Office." The former president will also speak about "the challenges facing the world in the 21st century."

    Bush left office Jan. 20 when President Barack Obama was sworn in. His image was bruised at the time, with the highest disapproval rating since Richard Nixon and a panel of historians ranking him as the worst president in American history.

    In his farewell speech as president, Bush said he hoped people will remember that he was willing to make tough decisions through eight years in office that included the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, and ensuing military actions in Iraq and Afghanistan.

    An appearance in Calgary is a good way for the former president to try "dipping his toe" in the public arena, said David Taras, a University of Calgary political science professor.

    "I think he's probably nervous about how he'll be received, and so Calgary's a safe place," he said, pointing out the city is very conservative and pro-American.

    Yet he predicted that with opinion polls suggesting people across Canada blame Bush for the current global economic crisis, the reception will be polite, but not enthusiastic.

    "There is a lot of anger and there is a sense it was a failed presidency."

    Interest from people in hearing the former president speak has already been strong, said Pradella.

    "We've had what I would describe as a pretty favourable response so far," he said.

    Bush's speech, combined with similar visits from other former high-ranking politicians such as Tony Blair and Bill Clinton, show Calgary's "growing international stature," he added.

    The event is not open to the public or media.

    Pradella said while the chamber is not providing financial support for the event, it is doing marketing work and offering tickets to some members.

    Other partners include the Ernst & Young accounting firm, the Bennett Jones law firm and the Calgary CFA Society, a professional organization for financial analysts.

    Funny you should mention that...

    400. An absent President

    Of the 2922 days Bush was President he spent all or part of 1,020 on vacation (35% of his time in office). This includes 487 days at Camp David, 490 at his ranch in Crawford, and 43 days at his family’s compound in Kennebunkport. If there is one word which typifies this and Bush, it is AWOL. The man has been AWOL his whole life. You have only to look at his academic career or his lack of it. It nails his experience with Vietnam where he never took a strong position for the war and went, or against it and protested. It was the essence of his time in the National Guard (whether it was technically the case or not). It marked his approach to his business failures. As for the governorship of Texas, it looks good on a résumé and is a useful political springboard but it is a weak position, tailor made for an AWOL man. Unfortunately for us, the Presidency is a real full-time job. In it, Bush stayed true to form. He was not just physically absent from it much of the time. He was intellectually and morally absent from it all the time.

    The results we can see all around us. He did not keep us safe from 9/11. He mired the nation in stupid wars he waged stupidly and interminably. He was not there for Katrina. He took a piratical financial industry and negligently set it loose on the economy to wreak havoc in the housing and oil markets and eventually bring the whole system to the point of collapse and the country to the edge of depression.

    But the blame does not belong to him. It never does with an AWOL man. No, it belongs with us who, as a nation, for 8 years took a vacation from our ourselves and our responsibilities. We had not just an AWOL President with Bush but an AWOL age. Now Bush is gone, as AWOL as ever, and we are left to deal with his legacies.

    BTW....

    What do Canadians throw when they protest?

    You know, as an insult?


    We don't want him back, you guys can have him!

    If someone can get physically close to him, they could throw a pie at his face. It was an idea taken from the French protestors, first started with Jean Chrétien. But the security will be too intense for that.

    He won't like his stay here... And fortunately, will go back to where he came from!

    He won't get anything thrown at him in Calgary. Anywhere else in Canada, and yup, he just might get that pie in the face, but not in cowtown - "Canada's most Americanized city". Calgary's full of Texans - I bet those Chamber members who receive tickets, are probably buddies with GW already.

    I'd LOVE to see them send him to Quebec - he'd be fucked over royally there. Hell, if they sent him there, Jean Chretien himself might be the one to throw the pie in his face!

    I seriously hope he get more than pies!
    As stupid as he is, he might just not get it and start eating the whole thing laughing (can I get coffee with that?)

    He won't be wellcomed here for sure. If we are forced into his visit, I'm afraid there will be a riot!

    I guess they have neo-con dumbfucks in Canada also, mostly in the prairies between Winnepeg and Edmonton. The chimp better hope Harper isn't kicked out of office (BTW how impeach the PM anyway?), otherwise he'll be in the hague before you can say nukier.

    Wish I was in Windsor, downing some Irish whiskey at "McVeigh's" in Toronto right now or traveling to Newfoundland.

    We are preparing to wellcome Obama on his visit to Canada... His very first meeting with the chief of another country...
    What an honor!

    What a difference from the last visit from a US President. One of my favourite lines of Bushes though. "It was nice for so many people to come out and wave - some of them with all five fingers".

    There hasn't been such strong enthusiasm since Kennedy.
    Hope he will slap some sense into our Prime Minister's Busheep!

    He's been laughed at, like there's no tomorow...
    But nobody's laughing at all the disaster he left behind!

    I was not old enough for Kennedy either but the way the preparations where going on yesterday in Ottawa, the Press said that both events are to be compared.

    Not every American President is to be treated equal!
