2. She gets play for her alleged ooh and ahh quality.

Or so they're hoping, as a distraction from evil as usual.

4. I don't know why...

She comes across to me as the blandest, most vacant First Lady (in my memory, anyway), although she looked like she was ready to knife Rev. Lowery in the back the other day. She's totally the antithesis of Hillary.

9. Yes, it comes from the old Dick Van Dyke show

Morey always referred to his wife 'Pickles' but no one ever saw her.

6. She calls bu$h dubya and he calls her pickles

I believe that is where the bull shit nick names came from.
I remember something before the 04 election in that context.

Isn't that just cute

11. He is crying in the corner still from King's funeral

"Laura, i can't do it anymore, they really hate, all the people said so many mean things." As georgie says this a hard slap goes across his face. The stinging reminder of who wears the pants in the family. With a cackel that almost reminded him of the Joker, Laura bent over and told him to get off his ass or she will beat him down a little more.

Yeah i think i am going to write a novel. :)
