Barbara Bush on the MN Bridge Disaster Victims..."It's working very well for them"
Edited on Thu Aug-02-07 10:35 AM by Vinnie From Indy
She went on to add, "What I’m hearing which is sort of
scary is they all want to stay in the river. Everyone is
so overwhelmed by the hospitality.

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


What a gal!

2. Is this real, or satire?
I appreciate good satire, but it's getting difficult to tell the difference sometimes.

--p!

have to worry about how to spell "Mississippi". We can do that for you."

Barbara Bush Says Evacuees 'Better Off'
http://cbs5.com/topstories/local_story_250104455.html

(AP) Former first lady Barbara Bush is getting attention for some of the comments she made about New Orleans evacuees who are now in Houston.

"What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas," she was quoted as saying in an interview on National Public Radio. "Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality.

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

Her comments came as former Presidents Bush and Clinton visited with hundreds of storm victims and announced the creation of the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund.
