Laura Bush urges families in Katrina areas: 'Try not to be sad'

-snip-
First lady Laura Bush on Monday urged parents here to cling to normal holiday practices even as families face dual hardships - recovering from Hurricane Katrina and coping while family members are stationed overseas for military service.

"There are still a lot of people not spending Christmas in their homes, but I encourage families to have all the same traditions," Bush said to children and parents at a Naval Construction Battalion Center.

no matter how much your husband needs the positive press.

But I hate the Bush family even more now. Fuck you Pickles, and fuck your murdering husband too.

Did you "have a great year" this year too?

Buh-BYE.



:puke:

Other than carefully crafted photo ops reading to children in schools, and hang out at the Crawford "ranch" smoking cigarettes?

Maybe they could make a tree out of mud? Presents could be whatever they find in the gutter or in dumpsters? :shrug:

No, thanks, "nuttin' on it"! :puke: :puke: :puke:

Remember, she's not even related to Babs "This is actually working out quite well for them" Bush. Is there like some kind of a vampire thing going on chez Bush**?

edit: puke

there wouldn't be a sad moment among them; until the "medicine" wore off, that is. I wish Laura would just shut the hell up. Isn't she supposed to be solving the "gang problem"? I thought hubby put her in charge of straightening out the "gang-bangers"? Must be she's completed that project and is now in charge of Katrina victims mental state. :eyes: Another job for "super-librarian"!

I think she was rounding up Boys and sending them to Recruiters.

This is how out of touch these people are.

>"There are still a lot of people not spending Christmas in their homes, but I encourage families to have all the same traditions,"<

I'd like her to explain to all of us -- using words of one syllable so we can be sure to understand -- how on earth some of these families will be able to "have all the same traditions" when they're still living in a car, as my friend's brother and his family are doing. It seems their FEMAnsion isn't ready for occupancy yet.

>RANT MODE ON!<
Mrs. Bush, it's tough to cook that holiday meal with all the trimmings from a hotel room without a kitchen. It's tough to put those cherished ornaments on the tree when they've been washed into Lake Ponchartrain by now. It's tough to explain to the kids why Santa won't be coming this year. After all, Mom and Dad are just trying to get through every day and find a job. If you're so g-d compassionate, maybe you and * should spend YOUR Christmas Day brightening the lives of others on the Gulf Coast. Then again, we all know the answer to that one, don't we?
>RANT MODE OFF<

And sound like her, too, with simplistic repuke admonitions:

Nancy R: Just say no.

Pickles: Don't be sad.

"If you don't have bread to feed your children, let them eat cake."

where is the tree going to go, Pickles? Where are the presents going to come from? Where will the stockings be hung? Who's going to buy the food for the big holiday meal? Once again this woman is too fucking much.

Or Christmas cookies somebody donated. Geez. Just when you think it can't get any worse for the hurricane victims, Pickles shows them a film about her dogs. How relevant. :sarcasm:

what a skanky whore

:grr:

...."but I encourage families to have all the same traditions" ...in your tent?" ....



She will entertian 9,500 people at 21 white house christmas parties this month. :puke:

buy for the Katrina survivors?

Again, :sarcasm:

or is it third?

Or is it an Abramoff house?

"Never look a gift house in the mouth" . . . or something like that . . . :evilgrin:

I'd throw her ass into a pit with Mann Coulter and Michelle Malkin.

I'm sure Santa will be visiting lots of the kids this year. Ugh. How rude of Laura.

>but I encourage families to have all the same traditions

It opens its mouth and it only sounds dumber and more callous every time it does.

a stupid woman on drugs w. a husband who passes out every night at 9 p.m. dreaming of gannon & ashe, no wonder she's bonkers on her lily white rear end

if i were her, i'd kick the drugs & raise a little hell like betty ford by taking on some do-gooder cause that embarrasses the drunk hubby, personally hunting down & finding housing for some of these victims sounds like a good one to me altho perhaps not as deliciously embarrassing a choice to the administration as ford's decision to admit to the drugs & alcohol & get into addiction issues

however it's easy for me to say what i would do w. such power, perhaps in her circumstance i'd be just as self-involved & blown out on drugs, ugh, what a thought

"There are still a lot of people not spending Christmas in their homes, but I encourage families to have all the same traditions,"

She is spending Christmas in the White House which is NOT her home.

clueless and callous

Take some more goddamn Xanax and sneak out for a smoke.

:grr:

And HOW much did they spend on holiday decorations for the white house???

A REAL first lady would have donated the money to the victims, instead of acting like Martha Fucking Stewart giving them "advice" about how to celebrate when these people have NOTHING.

have suggested of Pickles. Pickles, she ain't no Eleanor and Pinhead** ain't no FDR, no matter how hard they tried to convince themselves and their moran supporters, that they have the same moral values. :puke:

That you should not actually feel what you feel.

Put down that Elavil, Mrs. Bush, and get real.

both clinically INSANE!!!

So true, Teresa, so true.

The juxtaposition is amazing!

What a find. I have to send this all over.

on the Christmas tree, Laura.

Maybe she could make a call to Kenny Boy and some of the other cronies and raise a few billion for the needy.
The stuff that the elites waste would feed and clothe thousands.
Mrs. Demonfighter thinks she is a Downs syndrome victim.
I would have more sympathy for her if that were the case.
:grr:

Says she of the happy pill popping regimen.

to everyday Americans, do they? Talk about elitists! Are they so out of touch or is that they just don't give a shit? The very least they could do is just SHUT THE HELL UP!

Approximately how many days and/or hours does it take to prepare a State Dinner.

Walter Scheib
We typically start the planning for a State Dinner two months in advance. A tasting dinner is done for the First Lady and her comments are noted. A revised menu is then submitted, and a second tasting may or may not be done. The ordering of food takes place about a week and a half before the dinner, and preparation starts two days in advance. Most of the actual cooking takes place within two hours of service time.

I'm not into torture, but a part of me wants to put these people in a basement armpit deep in filthy water for 24 hours and see how they like it.

they should put a sign saying "baghdad" on the outskirts, and try to divert some of the billions. cuz they aren't gonna get shit otherwise.
