| 306 | John Q. Public | This petition is truly sad. Why not protest the gay rights or abortion rights groups on campus if you're so concerned about upholding the integrity of Christian faith at SMU? Oh, that's right, this isn't about integrity or Jesus Christ, it's about a bunch of pharisees--in this case, from the left wing of American politics--masquerading as believers in order to force their hateful, bitter political agenda down the throats of anyone who dares to offer a voice of reason. If you want to oppose the George W. Bush Library at SMU, that's great - this is America, and that's what our troops are dying to protect. However, to cheapen the Word by slapping the cross on top of your efforts is absolutely sickening. |
| 307 | Justin Vann | First United Methodist Church, Cheyenne Wyoming. Bush is completely out of touch and doesn't even deserve a library to try and salvage any sort of Legacy. Worst President ever! |

SMU does not need a library dedicated to someone so averse to education |

| 313 | Hunt Palmquist | As a Dallas resident, I am upset that the President has chosen SMU for his Library.
The traffic and the fact that he chose the Methodist school is unacceptable. He should reconsider and chose Baylor. I was raised Episcopalian and have always have a fondness for the Methodist Church. |
| 314 | Karen W. Allen | I am a cradle Methodist and at age 69 still believe in the principles that guide Methodists in our lives. George W. Bush does not reflect those principles. |
| 315 | Aaron Snyder | I was raised Methodist, Lutheran, and Episcopalian, and I have regularly attended Methodist and Episcopalian services throughout my adult life. I feel that President Bush has endorsed hatred in the name of Christianity throughout his presidency, which I find offensive and hurtful. I believe that it would be damaging to the Methodist church to associate his name publicly with this particular denomination. Thank you for creating this petition. |

| 322 | jo an haddon gaines | As a Methodist who attended Boston University School of Theology and assisted my husband in founding The Palm Springs Methodist Church in Calif. I oppose having anything George W. Bush has 'touched' at a Methodist Institution. |
| 323 | Anonymous | I would hate the thought of the Methodist Church being linked to someone so partisan, divisive and whose policies have been disastrous for this country. |
| 324 | Library Patron | Ah yes, those who complain about immoral, corrupt, and incompetent presidents will be happy to know that their heros Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and LBJ will now have their libraries moved to SMU. |
| 325 | Tim Chambers | Bethesda methodist Church...
Also an alumni who graduated from SMU in 1989.... Please reject this project, it is inapproprate to the school and the Methodists Church that supports it. |
| 326 | Gene E Sperling | Methodist.
This would be a mistake of imense proportions. This president, more than any in my lifetime, has disregarded the poor, the unfortunate, the disposessed, and the general populace. It sometimes appears that he is even intolerant of the general public. |

Yet another example of the president crossing the separation of church and state lines. Can't think of another presidential library affiliated with a religious institution |

It is unthinkable that this President's think tank would in any way be affiliated with the United Methodist Church. |

| 340 | Sydney Smith | I find it fitting that those opposing this petition drive are the most hateful in their words and deeds and still call themselves Christians.
Since when did supporting George Bush determine whether you are a Christian or NOT?
It is our right to be able to object to having a library built at SMU. People who are writing hateful things on this petition, should really go back and read through those who share your opinion and then ask yourself - would God condone your behavior - your name calling and beligerent behavior.
Honestly, while you all sit in church and wonder "How can we reach out to other..." remember that this is how we percieve you - showing your true colors as you have here.
There are individuals who call themselves Christians who love the Lord with all of their heart and still believe that we were misled into a war. With this in mind, we have the right to sign a petition dissenting to it being built here in Dallas. |

| 345 | Anonymous | My level of disappointment in this petition is extreme.
You are an embarrassment to all clergy, Methodists and otherwise. Politicizing your religeous views is what is the most innappropriate.
Your parents would be ashamed of you.

Regardless of church affiliation, how could any reasonable person or organization seek to be connected in any way with this president? |
| 349 | The Coffman Family | I would urge that Mr. Bush not be allowed to place his library within, or on the grounds, of any Church affiliated organization.

| 350 | Anonymous | It is true that there would be a correlation or endorsement of President Bush, and his policies, by Methodists. |
