So what is Laura Bush's "urgent message to American women" on
Edited on Fri Mar-24-06 01:01 PM by Feeney2
Larry King to night. I saw the blurb running by on CNN and I don't watch Larry King. Since I will miss it, was is that I need to know and go outside to shout out loud for all women to know?

1. Just close your eyes,
smile and go away in your mind to another place. He will be done with you pretty soon. Advice from my grandmother before I got married ;). It fits here better than it did there.

2. Probably to get a heart checkup with "your doctor."
Like most American women have someone they can call "my doctor."

5. Abortion is bad!
Women should be barefoot and pregnant, not in the workforce.
We need more children to supply the workforce of cheap labor for the wealthy.
My husband is not an alcoholic, idiot!

I am sure more will come to me in a minute!

7. It's an update on Chastity Belts. Just so happens that
brother-in-law Neil is starting a new company with headquarters in Bangkok. Barbara gave a donation to her local church earmarking the money to his new belt company.

10. Are they getting a couple for the twins?
I usually don't make jokes about the twins, but I couldn't resist this time, since it's not really at their expense.

From Her Lips to His Ear

By Sally Quinn
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, March 24, 2006; C01

Dear Laura,

It's time for you to act. Nancy Reagan did it. You can, too.

Things are falling apart. They always do in the second term. And when they do, there's only one person who can change things: the wife. You are the only one who can tell him the truth. You are smart, astute; you're not afraid of him and you love him.

I see you're going on Larry King tonight, and that's a good way to show your support and share your popularity. But your real work is behind the scenes.

....

The biggest problem your husband has now is that so many top Republicans have turned against him. Without the support of his own party, it's pretty much impossible for him to run the country. After the way they went after him over the Dubai ports deal, you can imagine what they are saying about him privately.

Incompetent, unrealistic and insincere were a few of the words circulating at a private dinner recently. Referring to the president's refusal to seek advice on anything -- the war, the economy, foreign policy -- one of the most prominent Republicans in Washington called the situation so dire that he feared "the country would fall apart with another three years of this.".....
