Barbara Bush: Things Working Out "Very Well" for Poor Evacuees from New Orleans

By E&P Staff

Published: September 05, 2005 7:25 PM ET

(snip)

In a segment at the top of the show on the surge of evacuees to the Texas city, Barbara Bush said: "Almost everyone I’ve talked to wants to move to Houston."

Then she added: "What I’m hearing is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed with the hospitality.

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

[oldtime dfl_er]

1. erm...what was it John Connally's wife said to JFK

just before he was assassinated? "You can't say Texas doesn't love you". Guess they just have a funny way of showing it.

[BrendaStarr]

50. After a Florida hurricane strike

Aren't they cutting checks for immediate living expenses within about a week?

Why is it all they are offering Katrina's victims is a cot.

[halley]

65. Not

This time-they aren't giving ANY money.

[DrZeeLit]

78. In FL... Election year + voters + brother + electoral college votes....

They got money because a LOT MORE was at stake than just clean up.
And darned if they didn't carry FL again.... kinda....sorta... yep.

[Drum]

2. That Bush family is one big example of the need

for contraception!

[Arkansas Democrat]

9. Boy isn't that the truth!!

I swear that women is a disaster and needs to stay home!!

[UpInArms]

32. with that hag, contraception was too late

sterilization was the answer prior to her appearance (can't even say "birth" for that piece).

[Mich Otter]

55. contraception and ABORTION. Required by law if need be.

[howmad1]

70. Sounds like her "beautiful mind" has completely lost it.

[HughBeaumont]

105. FOR ZE GUILLOTINE!!!

Bab the Hag would be the first to go.

[Zenlitened]

3. I can't decide.

Is she Shelob... or Ungoliant?

:shrug:

[glitch]

7. Jabba. nt

[mcscajun]

38. Shelob, definitely.

We know Ungoliant died...while Shelob survived the wounds to flee into her lair, where we have no more information about her.

[doxieone]

4. Nice of her to chuckle about it, too. n/t

[Bernardo de La Paz]

10. The chuckle is the wink and nod to the conservatives: get with the program

The chuckle is the wink and nod to the conservatives: get with the program. She is saying the party line is that the poor folk don't know any better than to let a disaster happen to them and the hidden agenda is the "welfare queens" meme.

[ktowntennesseedem]

121. That little chuckle reveals her genuine position.

She was truly speaking from the heart, from the gut, off the cuff. And she actually believes that these poor folks want to stay in Texas and that they actually have it better off now than they ever had it in their shacks back in the big easy!

That little chuckle proves that she actually thinks her comments were showing compassion and empathy -- and THAT is the scariest part of it all.

[Supply Side Jesus]

5. I sure hope she doesnt

Bother her pretty little mind with the plight of the poor.

[nookiemonster]

6. Whatever, Quaker Oats man,

we know about your "beautiful mind" message.

Shit don't wash anymore.

[Liberal Veteran]

8. More like one of Darkseid's thugs named Granny Goodness....

[Malikshah]

16. Geek Test! And you passed with flying colors

She is sooooo Granny Goodness!

:)

[Giant Robot]

80. Bows before your geek-ness

And wasn't she in charge if the Apokalypse orphanage called the "Happiness Home?" Just feels more and more right don't it?

[Bullshot]

120. We need a campaign to get Bab's picture off the dollar bill.

Why does this country give that witch such an honor?

[Missy M]

11. Yes Babs all the people who lost everything in the hurricane are....

thrilled to be living in an arena. Will your son be sending in the lions pretty soon. That will take care of the problem (chuckle). She is such an ass and should wear a muzzle.

[natrat]

12. ma barker "keep em from getting back to new orleans then

rebuild a christian facist vacationland"---

[Don Claybrook]

Gee, Barb, did the poor cause the hurricane on purpose

so that they could live on bleachers?

This is class warfare. They let us know every day that it's class warfare, with example after example.

It's so endearing to hear Barbara Bush chuckling at the poor whose lives have been hell on earth for a week.

[Amonester]

15. I'd like to know what is working very well for the underprivileged

her criminally idiot son didn't find priviledged enough to be saved earlier...

Senator Clinton? Senator Obama? Dare ask her? :mad:

[Liberal Veteran]

17. Hey, if you really want to see them happy, Babs...

....invite 2 or 3 thousand displaced poor to come live in your house for the duration.

[onager]

21. Yeah, like this guy...

After the great fire in Rome during the Nero Administration...

The same accounts depict (Nero) opening his palaces to provide shelter for the homeless and arranging for food supplies to be delivered in order to prevent starvation among the survivors.

[Sanity Claws]

19. This must be one of the stupidest things I've ever heard

She's nothing but a rich old woman who has no compassion or understanding. No wonder the children turned out the way they did.

[Liberal Veteran]

20. They didn't have much to begin with and they've lost it all!

Yeah, things are just peachy-keen for the evacuees.

[Lisa]

27. you know, that pretty well sums up the Bush family's sense of shame ...

"They didn't have much to begin with and they've lost it all!"

[demgrrrll]

23. They are the most clueless bunch in the world. eom

.

[Liberal Veteran]

24. Well, that certainly explains why her son is a sociopath.

Doesn't it?

[zum]

60. and just creepy

I see he's taking the photo ops to hug weeping folk who obviously can't see who's pawing them for the tears. He won't even face Cindy Sheehan.....

[movonne]

26. Who are they going to bring out next, the dog....

[VegasWolf]

28. She doesn't want to worry her "beautiful mind" about it. puke. nt

[ignatius 2]

29. Good Christ, this family hasn't an ounce of class between them.

Barbara, shut the fuck up you rich old douchebag,haven't these people been through enough without having to be subject to your cruel tongue.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

30. She's a pip. A real, fucking, wrinkled PIP.

[ignatius 2]

33. Good God,that is one scary picture. She looks as if she is

a hundred years old. Why does it seem like rich, mean. old people live forever?

[Amonester]

35. The sign says it all... - eom

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

39. The original photo said "Giant Glass"...

...and a fellow DUer asked me to "Photoshop out" the letters "Gl"...

I was only too happy to oblige.

:evilgrin:

[nookiemonster]

41. Excellent.

Be careful, you might incite a trend. LOL.

:)

[cliss]

36. Heh heh

Look at the blue and yellow sign behind Babs. It says "Giant Ass".

Now, take a good look at these two old cronies. They're smiling, but it's really a twisted squint.

These people are nothing more than sociopaths. Dig the heavy gold necklace around that fat sow's neck. Must be worth $$thousands.

[Mikimouse]

37. What's the caption on that picture?

I would think that it is probably something like: "Barbara! Give me back my ball, NOW!, please, huh, please {whimper}"

[tblue37]

69. Shouldn't that be

"Give me back my balls"?

[chomskysright]

43. Shame Game: calling all you white librel femi-nazis

Dear (Ms.) Barbara Bush:

I have so admired you from the time when you were First Lady. You were so quietly supportive and very obviously your son George has profited from the kind attentions you gave him as a youth. I was saddened to find out that he one time had a drinking problem but the Lord has a way of taking care of his own. I understand that Dr. Billy Graham converted him and if that isn't a conversion, then nothing is.

I was wondering if you thought it appropriate to advance this notion of 'morning after' pill for the poor black people in New Orleans who find themselves caught up in such unfortunate circumstance. We don't need any more people to have to transport should there be another flood.

Sincerely,
White Texas cracker and admirer

[Gregorian]

31. It's amazing how they believe their own lies.

Heartless. Careless. Ingelligent, but ignorant.

[rocktivity]

34. A meme is born?

Rep. Charles W. Boustany Jr., (R-La.): "...I have to say that the federal response has been focused on New Orleans with search and rescue operations which is going very, very well at this stage..."

:crazy:
rocknation

[Rose Siding]

40. What absolutely heartless remarks

It's sad to know that anyone could think them.

[tabasco]

42. "Let them live in the stadium!" Same shit different century.

[nookiemonster]

44. Hey Barb! Take a cue from Waylon and Willie.

"Don't let your babies grow up to be fascist, PNAC lovin', hypocritical cowboys."

My regards to Waylon Jennings and Willie, if he's listening, I butchered the lyrics just a "little bit"

:)

[Missy Vixen]

45. I'm honored to cast the fifth vote to recommend

This woman shows exactly what she is on an international level daily -- clueless, bigoted, and just plain evil. She'll deign to speak to those in her son's "base", though.

This is almost as good as my sig line. Maybe I should change it.

I can't think of anything vile enough to call her, frankly.

Julie

[Joanne98]

46. Richard Nixon said Barbara Bush taught him how to hate. I believe it.

[bear425]

48. Oh, right. Living in a sports arena is really so much better than home.

"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."

I'm truly sickened by her inappropriateness. Must be a family trait.

[acmavm]

49. I can't even think of anything appropriate to post, I'm just so appalled.

.

[NYC]

51. She implied that living in an arena is a step up for them.

She laughed about it. What is humorous about death and destruction? What is humorous about being shipped out to live in an arena for who knows how long? She raised her son. Is it any wonder the people of New Orleans were thrown to the wolves?

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

How utterly, appallingly inhuman and inhumane she is. I am at a loss for words.

Edit: Lots of problems while posting, and now this seems to appear more than once. Sorry.

[glitch]

52. Shut your gob former first skank, the civilized world is through with you.

And we want a full refund for all public monies spent on bushes too.

[Stinky The Clown]

53. Poster woman for birth control

Why as she permitted to breed?

[RDL]

75. Poster woman for

capital punishment

[Bullshot]

122. Poster woman for retroactive abortions.

[NYC]

54. She implied that living in an arena is a step up for them.

She laughed about it. What is humorous about death and destruction? What is humorous about being shipped out to live in an arena for who knows how long? She raised her son. Is it any wonder the people of New Orleans were thrown to the wolves?

[Mr_Jefferson_24]

84. How 'bout these ...

...words: CRUEL, UNCARING, NASTY, HAG.

[Erika]

56. Shallow, stupid, conservative

aka the ruling party of this country. God help us and especially help the poor from this insensitive and snobbish party.

[ClayZ]

57. She ought to use some duct tape on her mouth!

:puke: she makes me sick!

[vanboggie]

58. Stupid *isms

Now we know where dimwit son gets his penchant for saying stupid things.

[troubleinwinter]

59. I am unable to post my opinion on

this sociopath's comments.

The words that come to my mind are too rugged for even DU's adult content. I did mention my reaction to my husband. He is bandaging his bleeding ears presently.

[DuckBurp]

61. She apparently thinks that losing their homes and

possessions, being separated from their families and friends, and facing an unknown future is the best thing that ever happened to them.

[opihimoimoi]

64. Bugs is one sick mama..... beautiful mind my ass.

[DawgHouse]

72. that's exactly what she thinks! Lucky them!! NT

[antonialee839]

62. Sending the Quaker Oat Man's evil twin out on the

TV circuit is their idea of damage control?

[GOPFighter]

63. Must be the Fundy Christian in her

Other things I've heard Fundies say:

"Why are Blacks so upset with America? They get all the good jobs and we rescued them from Africa."

"Low wages are good for workers. It makes them work harder."

"I didn't really lie. I made it up but I'm sure it's true."

"I only obey the parts of the Bible God tells me I should."

"I do what I want because I know Jesus will make it right."

[MaineDem]

101. I don't think she's a fundie

I believe they're Episcopalian...and not all that religious.

But she is appealing to Junior's fundie base, I agree.

[nothometoday]

66. What country is this???

BUSH MOM: EVERYONE WANTS TO MOVE TO TEXAS
Mon Sep 05 2005 19:52:02 ET

Former first lady and mother to President Bush said Monday that evacuees from New Orleans have found a home in Houston.

"Almost everyone I’ve talked to says we're going to move to Houston," Barbara Bush told NPR.

"What I’m hearing is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality.

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



Editor & Publisher notes the former First Lady's remarks were aired this evening on National Public Radio's "Marketplace" program.

[Dudley_DUright]

71. Atrios is reporting that the E&P actually left out part of the quote

It is worse than we thought, if you can even imagine that is possible. Here is the complete quote:

What I'm hearing which is sort of scary is that they all want to stay in Texas. Everybody is so overhwlemed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway so this (chuckle)--this is working very well for them.

[NYC]

77. Sort of scary?

Firstly, do they all want to stay in Texas, or do they just have nowhere to go?

Secondly, I hope every single one of them stays in Texas if it scares her. She scares me.

[fudge stripe cookays]

119. Maybe it's sort of scary for her....

that a good deal of these new settlers in Texas are going to be voting HEAVILY DEMOCRATIC next election since they have been screwed (with no lubricant) by this administration! (Or voting for the first time AGAINST Republicans if they have never voted before...)

What's the matter Babs? A little nervous Junior might lose his "home" state?

We need to get our butts busy getting these folks registered to vote the next few months, sweeping Rick Perry, Dewhurst, Craddick, DeLay, and all of Chimpy's other minions out of state government, and getting Texas back where it was in the good ole days.

Another bummer for Babs--if any of these folks had felony records, they will still be able to vote. Texas is one fo the states that allows folks to vote as long as they have fulfilled all the conditions of their sentence and parole.

FSC

[renate]

124. they played the tape, with the "which is sort of scary" part, on AAR

I wonder why E&P left it out? Maybe to keep regular vomiting at her words from becoming projectile vomiting?

[progressivebydesign]

73. How nice that she found it "SCARY" that they want to stay in Texas.

My brother lives in Texas, and believe me, the evacuees would be much better off somewhere else. Texas doesn't take care of its people. I wonder if Bush had some contracting deals in texas to take care of everyone, and that's why they sent them there.

[CountAllVotes]

74. ahhhhhhhh blow off!!!!!!

Babs, you mother of the anti-christ! :grr: :argh: :grr: :argh:



:kick:

[Divernan]

76. Hey Babs! Open your mouth and remove the Ferragamos.

Do you wonder if she is even capable of grasping the offensiveness of her statements? Does anyone on the Bush staff or in her family have the guts to tell her to STF up.

[NYC]

79. Take another look at her wardrobe.

I doubt she wears Ferragamos.

[Giant Robot]

81. It's scary and sad that I have to say this but

GHWB is the wisest and most compassionate out of all of them. How pathetic is that?!!

[ignatius 2]

82. Whoa..slow down there. He was head of the CIA,was right smack in the

middle or Iran contra and by pardoning those involved saved his own sorry ass..he set up the first Iraq war by lying just like his worthless son, was part of the Carlyle group who essentially use government connections and contracts to keep past leaders extremely rich,he is best buds with Reverend Moon and there is an interesting thread about his comment on Larry King.."I don't hear anyone on the roofs complaining."

Compassionate,give me a break. Evil,cruel,callous and vile..you bet.

[Giant Robot]

87. I would suggest a careful re-reading of what I wrote there

I said he was the wisest and most compassionate out of all of them referring to the Bush family. And I also said that was a sad thing. In comparison to the rest of humanity, hell in comparison to most packs of hyenas, they are surely lacking in the compassion department. There's no need to educate me on how GHWB was not much of a human being as well for future reference.

[Erika]

90. GHWB is not the problem now

His and Barbara's elitist son is.

[Pithy Cherub]

83. barbar bush: An ongoing embarrssment to motherhood...

That is the most condescending, plantation owner talk coming out of her sewer of a mouth.

[GoldenOldie]

86. Perfect example of incompetant Mother

She led her children by example and each and every one of them are arrogant, greedy, self-righteous assholes. Their is not one ounce of integrity or dignity in any of them.

Throwing a string of pearls around her neck does not give her a look of dignity and class. The only way those pearls could make her look better is if they were larger and they wrapped around her mouth.

"If she were on fire, I wouldn't even piss on her"

[fooj]

92. The rat bastards will attone!

Call for the immediate resignation of the current administration. We are demanding accountability and calling our elected representatives starting 8 am tomorrow morning (Tues 9-6) in Washington D. C. and asking them to do their jobs by representing the voices of the people. If they do not honor their obligation to their constituents, we will hold them accountable, as well.

Please let the people know that tomorrow is ACCOUNTABILITY DAY!

Barbara Bush: Relocation 'working very well' for poor

Tuesday, September 6, 2005; Posted: 7:29 a.m. EDT (11:29 GMT)


Former President George Bush and his wife, Barbara, visit evacuees in Houston on Monday.

HOUSTON, Texas (AP) -- Former Presidents Bush and Clinton got smiles, hugs and requests for autographs when they met with refugees from Hurricane Katrina -- but it was Bush's wife who got attention for some of her comments.

Barbara Bush, who accompanied the former presidents on a tour of the Astrodome complex Monday, said the relocation to Houston is "working very well" for some of the poor people forced out of New Orleans.

"What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality," she said during a radio interview with the American Public Media program "Marketplace." "And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them."

[Bridget Burke]

102. Why should it be "scary" if some stay in Texas?

Some will--& not just the "underprivileged." Big Houston has often been the first stop for Louisianans looking for better jobs.

A friend was just wondering how many restaurants will open serving Creole and/or Cajun food. We already have some--a few more would be fine. (& she belongs to a church that has been serving the poor for years--she was not being unfeeling.)

[stanwyck]

104. uh, well, it will be scary, because

you know...so many of those people are, and this is the scary part for Babs...black.

[Bridget Burke]

106. Well, there are already many black people in Houston.

At all socioeconomic levels.

They just aren't in her "set." (Or her gated community.)

[Thor_MN]

125. Because an influx of "you know, underprivileged" people would upset

the gerrymandered applecart of Texas politics. They laid the districts out carefully with an eye to keeping them red. Toss in voters who can't be very happy with this admin and Texas could turn blue overnight.

Texas goes blue next fall and * might be staring the "I" word in the face. That's the only thing I can think of that would scare someone who actually had Chimpy INSIDE them.

[Eurobabe]

127. elitist bee-yatch!

[MaineDem]

100. This is unforgiveable

A former first lady and the (gag) mother of the current President should never ever ever say anything as stupid as this.

How (excuse me) fucking ignorant and pompous of her!!!

[Strawman]

103. "I want this entire Astrodome scrubbed and disinfected!"

I can just picture her walking in there like Judge Smales' wife at the Bushwood pool on Caddy Day.

Fucking snob.

[Patchuli]

107. Well we can certainly see

that the seed didn't fall far from the tree.

What an evil, ugly (inside and out) person. Look what kind of children she raised.

She and W also "chuckle" at inappropriate moments.

They'll get theirs. God does NOT like ugly.

[Justitia]

108. Please don't judge TX by the damn Bushes! Esp BABS! We WANT them to stay

IGNORE THE REPUBLICANS!!! (The Bushes & our idiot GOV)

The overwhelming sentiment in the CITIES of TX, and their DEM MAYORS (Houston, San Antonio, Dallas), is we want LA residents to feel very welcome here and to stay permanently if they so desire.

We will welcome them as permanent Texans or we will help them to ultimately return to LA.

We are a very big state, open to EVERYONE, and we have plenty of opportunity and space for them all.

Please, please, ignore these repug idiots that are saying these things - IT IS NOT A REFLECTION OF THE OVERWHELMING SENTIMENT OF A MAJORITY OF TEXANS, especially in the cities that are hosting our LA guests.

You'd have to be here to see it, but it is really something the way Houstonians (except for the freaking Bushes) are welcoming and caring for them. I've never seen anything like it in all my life in Texas.

BTW - She is saying that (they want to stay permanently) because she is hearing comments in response to the warm welcome and care LA residents are receiving. We are doing our best for them, we convey our desire for them to stay, and many are considering it.

edit to add: The Bushes themselves are not very welcome in Houston. They NEVER come out in public. On election day, they were BOOED AT THEIR POLLING PRECINCT and had to be whisked out of there in their humongous SUV in a hurry!

[shrike]

113. I'm very proud of Houston

and I've never been there. But the generosity of Houston and its people has been one of the few bright spots for me.

I think what people are objecting to is Babs' insinuation that LA people hit the lottery when Katrina destroyed their homes, drowned their families and friends and took away everything they had. Well, they lived in squalor anyway, so living in an arena is a step up for them -- aren't they a bunch of lucky-duckies? That is the sense I get here.

If you happen to run into a Houston official, tell them this Indiana resident is damned proud they are an American city. I'd email the mayor if I could, but don't know how to reach them.

[Justitia]

114. Thanks for your support. Our mayors are stand-up dems, working hard.

Barbara Bush and her diarrhea of the mouth are nothing but an embarrassment.
She hasn't been in Houston for months and never ventures out amongst the citizens of Houston anyway, so what does she know?

Our mayors are knocking themselves out to provide for our new residents as are our school board superintendents, city councils, etc., etc.

And our citizens have been amazing.

If anyone would like to send a note of support to the dem mayors of 3 of our largest cities housing flood victims, below are links.

They could use some moral support in the face of our idiot repug governor and idiot repug legislature (who will probably not make it easy for them):

Houston mayor, Bill White's e-mail: [e-mail]

Dallas mayor, Laura Miller: http://www.ci.dallas.tx.us/forms/mcc/mayor_mail_form.htm

how completely horrifying that it is not.

[onager]

112. Keep talking, Bar.

I really want the elder Bu$hes to keep spewing their clueless, defend-Junior-at-all-costs nonsense. In fact, I want them doing it in as many public fora as possible.

It might finally wake up a few people.

Barbara Bu$h, white-trash Agrippina...

[saigon68]

116. Please don't trash Agrippa's good name

To be compared to that OLD HAG whose face graces the $1.00 bill

[onager]

123. AgriPPINA--Nero's mom

Poisoner of her husband Claudius, poisonee by her son, IIRC.

A family almost as dysfunctional as the Bushes...

[doxieone]

115. I am waiting to hear Rice talk about Barb's remarks. n/t

[yellowcanine]

117. Those "lucky ducky" poor people that get all that federal aid. You can't

make up shit like this.

118. This woman is the real scum of the earth.

126. Something I noticed

This hurricane has really proven what scum POS jackasses the "compassionate conservatives" are. We've known all along - hopefully, other people will wake up to their nonsense.
