I agree and I might even read Bush's memoir.

If only to see if he explains his rational for gutting the Presidential Records Act that would have made it virtually impossible for future historians to have full and open access to his presidential papers (including e-mails)...speaking of which I hope he also explains how 4 million e-mails, many dealing with the decisions leading up to the invasion of Iraq, were "accidentally lost or deleted".

Nothing wrong with presidents writing memoirs to offer their own perspective on their place in history....but when they takes actions that restrict others from offering a different, more objective, perspective, history suffers.
