BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :D

[kikiek]

1. I can't wait to pick up my copy tomorrow.

[Carla in Ca]

30. She looks the way she does because

after her daughter Robin died years ago, she was never spoken of again and they played golf the next day.

[goddess40]

34. Was/is she a drinker?

My mom, swears the * looks like a fetal alcohol syndrome victim.

[RebelYell]

44. I read somewhere, wish I had a link

That she quit drinking because of many miscarriages due to her Gin consumption.

[Chelsea Patriot]

43. Common behavior among Old Sows

An old Sow will roll over on one of her shoats, crushing the piglet and not give a fuck less.

One less mouth pulling in its teat.

Just like America's Would-Be, Self-Deluded Queen Mother.

I'm living to see this Hag's response when all her schemes crumble!

[Carla in Ca]

46. Chelsea, I'm sure she will have the same response

she had regarding the body bags from Iraq; "Why should I waste my beautiful mind on things like that?"

[roguevalley]

32. someone said Nixon spoke that 'there is a woman that knows how to hate'

[Skittles]

2. that is exactly the impression I have always had of Babs Bush

one wretched woman

[jonnyblitz]

18. same here. I never bought the grandmotherly image at all. n/t

[indie_voter]

3. I can't wait for my copy

I just sent a good friend a copy for her birthday.

:)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. LOL! "A pearl-wearing mugger!"

I've always thought of ol' Babs as a cross between Dame Edna and Vlad the Impaler.

[Eloriel]

24. Nah, coulndn't be. I LOVE Dame Edna.

Babs doesn't have nearly her charm and finesse. And I think Dame Edna is actually much prettier.

:evilgrin:

Edited: Also MUCH better fashion sense.

[kskiska]

35. Dame Edna

wears much nicer frocks.

[displacedtexan]

45. What a great line!

I may have to use it!

[Octafish]

5. America's Gangster Family.

"I was fascinated by the family dynamic of it all,"
Kelley said Monday in an interview with
The Associated Press at the offices of her publisher, Doubleday.
"I started out thinking that it was maybe `The Donna Reed Show"
and maybe I ended up thinking it was `The Sopranos.'"



Well, duh.

[Disturbed]

8. Old Barb Bush is..

as ugly inside as she is outside.

[mahenphx]

31. Acorn didn't fall far from her tree ...

Did you see this? With nurturing from someone this cold it's no wonder her son's so *'d up...

http://www.truthout.org/docs_04/091004W.shtml

[oldlady]

6. Al Franken's onto her

remember the description in his book "Liars.." about running into Barbara on an airplane *heehee* as my mom would say, "what a battle axe!"

[coolhandlulu]

41. Sorry, but I have to disagree...

I'm a battle axe, Babs is a cold hard *itch!

[AlCzervik]

7. Grandma Gorilla, she looks as though she would eat her young.

[faithnotgreed]

9. ah. no wonder all of a sudden the bush duo have been affectionate

in public. just this past week ive seen several threads about the two of them, even during the 9/11 ceremonies

kelley says they are more demonstrative to their dogs than to each other.....

[Bozita]

10. `The Donna Reed Show" family looks more like `The Sopranos'"

Don't forget to vote on the story.

"I was fascinated by the family dynamic of it all," Kelley said Monday in an interview with The Associated Press at the offices of her publisher, Doubleday. "I started out thinking that it was maybe `The Donna Reed Show" and maybe I ended up thinking it was `The Sopranos.'"

[liberalmuse]

11. I like this picture of 'ol Ma Bush...

Nevermind, it's not going to show it here. But scroll to the bottom of this page to see it:
http://mirrors.meepzorp.com/geocities.com/george-bush-antichrist/

This is the old, 'George W. Bush is the Anti-Christ' site.

There's an updated one out and it's pretty hilarious. Love the new 'devil sign' addition.

On edit: And I haven't even been drinking tonight.

[wildflower]

17. When I first glanced at your post I got confused for a second...

and thought you were talking about the picture in your sig :)

Speaking of URLs, watch what you get when you type in http://www.liberalsforbush.com (I was curious if such a site existed)

(If people don't want to click on it I'll paste in some of the text in this thread.)

[Oilwellian]

12. What a perfection description

[Hanover_Fist]

13. Unfortunately

the old bag looks a little too much like George Washington.....

[Bundbuster]

14. It came from beyond

[latebloomer]

16. Oh God, what a frightening picture!

Now I'm gonna have nightmares!!

[notadmblnd]

36. I printed it off.. I going to...

tape it onto the back of my car window. hopefully a lot of other people will have nightmares too.

[Rex]

22. Female yoda, cept ugly and mean.

.

I practice the Farce.

[wicket]

27. Bilbo?

:evilgrin:

[mediaman007]

15. Actually, I think she's the brains of the outfit.

All of the Bush men are girlie men. Figure it out: Bailing out on your crew, the shrub* using nine lifetimes of favors to earn his money and power. Babs probably sent GHWB out to make sure Little Georgie was taken care of.

No wonder GHWB had an affair.

[AlCzervik]

19. oh yes, Barbs is wearing the brains and the penis in that family

[Bozita]

20. Doesn't Karen Hughes look an awful lot like Bar?

Freud must be drooling .

[Eloriel]

26. I always thought she looked most like W

Which creeped me out big time.

[shanti]

21. i tried to get one from costco today

but it wasn't available. it's on their website tho.

[DieboldMustDie]

23. I believe the release date is the 14th...

so they should have it tomorrow. :shrug:

[FredScuttle]

25. Ol' Ironsides may be a tough old broad...

but even she doesn't have the ice in her veins to have actually whacked someone, unlike a certain First Lady I could mention

[walldude]

28. Don't bet on that

from what I heard she's really running the show. I've heard from a few people that she is not to be messed with...

[rocktop15]

29. LOL--I heard she is a major bitch---Funny Story

As I was getting my student ID made at UTC, the lady that worked there (life long Republican, voting for Kerry this November) said that about 10 years ago she was at a social gathering/party that Barbara was at. She was chatting up Barbara and during this she asked if she would like a mixed drink or something to that effect....Barbara's response "Fuck no, give me the goddamn bottle of Jack Daniels and I'll challenge you to see who can drink it faster." Or something to that effect.

What a classy first lady.

[Berserker]

33. There is another

dark secret in the * family thats never been exposed. The fact that she copied the logo image of Quaker Oats and has never been sued!
http://www.quakeroatmeal.com/

[skooooo]

37. That's it..I'm buying the book now!

[BeachBuckeye]

38. You do know don't you?

The picture on the Quaker Oats box is Babs without her pearls.
Tongue firmly in cheek here but it does look like her.

[wicket]

39. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

:D

[ellie]

42. No! She's the chick from the

one dollar bill!




Thanks to Beavis and Butthead for that one

[Misunderestimator]

40. She used an analogy comparing the "Patty Duke Show" to the "Sopranos"

This morning on the Today show to compare what the perception from the media has been on the Bush family so far (Patty Duke) to what she portrays in her book (Sopranos). Good stuff! :D
