How much did the opening of the Clinton Library cost us Bassy?

Not as much as the George W. Bush library, and the annual
upkeep
cost
is less, too!


Really? Where is the GW Bush library located?
sorry, George H.W. Bush, College Station, TX


Can you post some figures to support your claim?

Our resident "King of the NG idiots" apparently is quite math
impaired.

"Brian Blake, public relations specialist at the Bush Library, said
the
total cost of the library was $83 million, less than half of what SMU
may
have access to.
Blake said the library museum cost $43 million, with private funds
from the
Bush Foundation, while the library conference center and the Bush
School of
Government and Public Service cost $40 million. The funding, he said,
came
from state and A&M money."

"Mr. Clinton's cost $165 million,"

Oh, contrai
"Over the years, presidential libraries have evolved into multi-purpose
institutes that, in addition to housing the official papers of a former
President, can include museums, conference facilities, and classrooms.
The cost of these facilities can be substantial. According to the
George Bush Presidential Library Center Construction and Fact Sheet,
the George Bush Presidential Library Center honoring President George
H.W. Bush cost approximately $83 million to construct; roughly half of
that cost was defrayed by private contributions to the George Bush
Presidential Library Foundation, with the remainder funded by Texas A&M
University. A December 6, 2001 article in The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
reports that construction of the Clinton Presidential Center is
expected to cost $104 million. The Clinton Presidential Library cost
has been defrayed by private contributions in excess of $70 million,
bringing it's total taxpayer cost of only $34 million."

As you can see, it cost the taxpayer's more for Bush's legacy, than for
Clinton's. By the way, the costliest to run and maintain? Reagan's.


Where did it cost taxpayers more for the Bush library? Clinton's according
to your post cost taxpayers $34 million. And according to your post Bush's
cost the taxpayers $0. 1/2 private people money and the other 1/2 Texas A&M
money.

And of course, asslicker fails reveal, is that the rules changed with Bush
senior, The fed guvmint restricted the amount of fed dollars that could go
to a prez library starting with Bush I. so his 'stats' are meaningless to
begin with.
