So I'm watching Barbara Bush...

On "Larry King Live". Is it just me, or does she look like an old drag queen? She? Has a very manly face, with those campy earrings... it all just screams 'guy'.

My apologies to the drag queens out there for the comparison.

PS: That bitch just turns my stomach, I see where Junior gets it...

1. She has lizard eyes...totally dark and devoid of emotion.

I thought that even as an 18 year old without kids when she became first lady. I thought, "that woman is somebody's mother? Yikes"

3. Al Franken pointed out in his book...

That most who know Babs think she's a "horrible bitch."

A good summation.

6. She makes that obvious.

I've never seen anyone quite like this... you can just tell, that she believes in her heart of hearts, that she's better than EVERYONE else.

Sorry to clue ya in Babs, you still look like a dude with plastic earrings.

5. Not to be cruel, but...

The first time I saw Pappy and her on TV together (it was walking from Air Force One early in his term), I thought "why is his mother with him?"

I mean, I know they're both quite old, but even fifteen years ago, she looked like hell on a stick.

4. My mom has met her.

She said she was okay, but then again, it was at a photo-op (my mom teaches at an elementary named after that grayhaired douchebag).

7. Honestly,

I'm not sure how I feel about Pappy, he doesn't turn my stomach like Dumbya, Babs, or the dickhead in Florida.

I sort of get a sincere vibe from him, I could be way off on that one. He also had a touch of good sense with Gulf War 1, he didn't allow that to turn into the mess Junior's gotten us into.

9. She never talks bad about Pappy

But she doesn't know Chimpy at all

Also, she knows full well how I feel about all things Bush

13. Barb is bad but George is just as bad in a different way....He

has the same cunning, manipulative way as his son....Pretending to be soooooooo sentimental and soft hearted....but the things he does (launching wars that kill people) prove him to be the opposite of what he pretends!....IMO

16. That bitch basically said that poor black people are lucky.

Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 08:48 PM by philosophie_en_rose

Because Houston is so luxurious and "THOSE" people are quite underprivileged you know. :grr:

Exact Quote:

"And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this (she chuckles slightly)--this is working very well for them."

Maybe she should tour the wards of Houston.
