Was Barbara Bush Missing at the National Cathedral Today?

I see that Jeb's son was really setting the tone for mourning (See: http://www.kltv.com/Global/story.asp?S=3861132), but did anyone see Barbara Bush at the National Cathedral today?

5. She mourns people by playing a round of golf.

The day after her young daughter Robin died, she and her husband left their kids at home and played golf!

I'm just back from the National Cathedral

Edited on Fri Sep-16-05 01:47 PM by teenagebambam

...where I sang for the gang. I'm trying to think of something to be catty and bitchy about, but I'm having trouble. It was really a very nice service.

Okay, I'll be catty - I sang a solo, and while I was singing, the only person in the Presidential party (George and Pickles, Dick and Lynn, Condi, Rummy and Gonzo) that looked like he was enjoying himself was RUMMY. Chimp looked up and smirked, I'm not sure if that meant he liked what he heard or not. Condi, throughout, looked like she was absorbing everything for later regurgitation on an exam. Dick, as always, looked like he crapped his pants and has been sitting in it for about an hour. Laura has fresh blond highlights, and looks like she's had her face pulled back and stapled from behind.

Anyway, I digress...

9. I'm serious. I didn't see her. Was she missing? Did anyone see her there?

Edited on Fri Sep-16-05 05:57 PM by David Zephyr

?

If she was missing, shouldn't the media ask why she would have attended the National Cathedral Prayer Service for the victims of 9/11 and not those from Katrina?

Hmmm.

13. She is still bitter about the evacuees invading Houston

She thinks the victims are less than human, why would she waste her time travelling to Washington?

15. She's been silenced.

I mean that in all sincerity. Not like she's been shut away or anthing, but there was a thread in the LBN about her a couple of days ago.

It was a statement from Beam Me Up Scotty about Babs Bush. He said that "she will no longer be making public statements," and something to the effect that she will be guarded.

It sounded VERY MUCH to me like they don't want her in the limelight. She's doing more harm than good with her big mouth and her controversial statements.

Also, I don't believe she meant any harm by what she said this week. She just can't help it - she's one of the isolated Beautiful People.

14. Erm, who died?

I apparently missed something. And I'm curious because I live about 1/4 mile away from the National Cathedral.
