$100 !!!!!? How can that be? he hasn’t done anything worth putting in any library except maybe his real birth certificate.

Just wondering, did we have to pay for either of the Bush libraries? Or the Reagan library? Maybe we did, I just don’t recall hearing about it.

From the article:
“While presidential libraries are traditionally funded mostly by private donations, Madigan pointed out that “close to $100 million in state money” was earmarked for the Abraham Lincoln presidential library in Springfield. “So we have precedent for this,” he said.”

I think he deserves a Library, but I thought it was paid for in donations. did Texas pay for the Bush library? Did California pay for the Reagan Library? Serious questions.

Anyone can correct me if I am wrong on this but I don’t believe any federal money got spent on any of the 3 Presidential Libraries in Texas.
