Barbara Bush: "dems are a sorry lot"

[fujiyama]

Did anyone else catch this remark? It's absolutely flabergasting...

Sorry Babs, we don't have any coke snorting, spoiled AWOL fratboys, that set up failed business that got bailed out from Daddy's friends...Oh, but wait that's the one that's in office now. What about the others? Well, your father-in-law traded with Nazis...and your other sons, well one had a financial scandal, and another (or maybe it's the same one) has had relations with little asian girls when he goes there on "business"...

And we didn't steal any elections. We kicked your husband's ass fair and square.

MAybe you're the one that rhymes with witch!

calico apron, pretending to be a sweet old grandma with an attitude.

This crone will be ejected from hell as unsuitable for further frying.

2. Here she is on the US soldiers her son has led to death in Iraq

"...why should we hear about body bags, and deaths, and how many, what day it's gonna happen, and how many this or what do you suppose? Or, I mean, it's, it's not relevant. So, why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?" -- Barbara Bush on ABC/Good Morning America, March 18, 2003

-touching, isn't it?

4. Why should I waste my beautiful mind

... feeling sorry for her because of her dead daughter?

[libertad]

23. I can't believe she said that! That is incredibly heartless and

just plain weird. Her beautiful mind???

[jab105]

11. I wonder if she cared about the body bags when her Georgie (41)...

was fighting in WW2...or did she just ignore that war also, since it might waste her beautiful mind??

16. Do you have a link to that?

21. I just Googled it,

it's all over the blogs. Here's something from TomPaine:

Frank Rich, writing in The New York Times on April 13, 2003:

"The president's mother told Diane Sawyer she would watch 'none' of TV's war coverage because '90 percent' of it would be speculative. Mrs. Bush continued: 'Why should we hear about body bags and deaths and how many, what day it's gonna happen? ... It's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?'"

26. ARE you SHITTING us?

Seriously? OMFG. Wow, I gotta get working on my letter to the editor(s). Holy crap.

[elperromagico]

3. To paraphrase her son

"Who cares what that withered old crone thinks?"

[Zorra]

5. She's just grumpy.

People get like that when they don't have sex for three decades.

[RummyTheDummy]

25. Three decades my ass!

More like 4 or 5.

6. When oh when...

Will a house fall out of the sky and send this old bat to hell once and for all?

[HEyHEY]

7. And your daughters have loose morals!

Not that I give a shit. But, I didn't catch the remark...funny she would say that ...let's pretend that Bush WON the election legally. It still would have been by a SMALLLLLLLL majority. So is she saying half the country is a sorry lot? Well that makes one out of every two people "Sorry" and between her and W I don't know which that is.

[Brian Sweat]

18. That would be her grand daughters.

The twins are Laura's kids.

[Some Moran]

20. Shut up!

The law is unjust and you all know it. I've been allowed to drink since I was 19, and quite frankly, I think I should have legally been allowed to at 18.

[neebob]

8. What do you expect

from someone who thinks H.W. is Superman. She said that on that ridiculous CNN Presents: A Flyboy's Story. She knew he'd make it back because he's Superman.

[RuB]

9. Well Barbara, whats it like to be the mother of Stupid?

I would have asked that question and if necessary bitchslapped her back.

[Don_G]

10. Dems Are A Sorry Lot?

Yep, we're sure sorry we got stuck with your husband and your son and we're sure as hell sorry that neither one will crawl from out of the woodwork so we can kick their f**king asses!!!!

[Michael Harrington]

12. Just a little fun fact about Babs...

She's related by blood to three of the worst Presidents in American history: her husband (I don't recall Superman getting Batman and Green Lantern killed when they fought together in the JLA, myself...), her idiot runt and Franklin Pierce. Who she might have actually met.

With that comment she made about Democrats, she deserved to be bashed a hundred times over.
