Today The Huffington Post carries the high contrast story that Laura Bush is receiving potential publishers for her own memoirs at the White House.  Read all about it here.

I’m so relieved to know that someone in the family will be helping to swell the family coffers.  And perhaps Mrs. Bush, a former librarian, might even write the memoir herself.  Another first lady, Abigail Adams, whose birthday is today, once said, “I’ve always felt that a person’s intelligence is directly reflected by the number of conflicting points of view [s]he can entertain simultaneously on the same topic.”

If Laura Bush were to probe how she, a former pro-choice Democrat, fell in love with George W. Bush and what price she has paid for that decision and what recompense there has been–privately and publicly–I would actually be interested in reading her story.  How about you?
