Has anyone here seen Laura Bush's bare arms? Any pictures?

[lutefisk]

Seriously. I have never seen her arms in any picture. Always covers her arms.What has Junior done to her arms!?

Hotter than hell- everybody looks like they're baking in the heat. It was 94 degrees on July 30, when this picture was taken, and Laura is covered by long sleeves....as usual. Why???

[AndyA]

1. She probably has that type of skin that would get real blotchy if exposed

to the sun.

Either that, or they're black and blue from the bruises she gets when George gets drunk and beats the tar out of her... :eyes:

[skiddlybop]

2. Yeah, or you might

..even see tracks. Marijuana, is, after all, a gateway drug.

[CoffeeCat]

3. How strange...

...especially when Republicans, such as herself, are so adamant about its citizens right to "bear arms."

Hmmmmmm...

;)

[fooj]

11. BWAHAHAHAHA!

:rofl:

[Skinner]

18. LOL

:rofl:

[lutefisk]

20. Now that's funny! n/t

[NV Whino]

33. Best remark this century

:rofl:

[Ilsa]

4. Maybe she has skin cancer to go with that brassy hair color.

I don't remember if I've ever seen her arms. I wish I never had to see Jr's face, though.

[theophilus]

5. The arm thing IS interesting. Something else, that pic looks doctored.

Look at the shadows on everybody else's face, etc. The Bush goobers look mighty pasty faced. What's up with that?

[SoCalDem]

6. Women "of a certain age" probably should cover their arms

:) I rarely go sleeveless, except at home or with other women my age :evilgrin:

[RebelOne]

14. I never go sleeveless anymore since I am

"of that certain age." But she is still not that old. I am in my '60s and just in the past few years, realized I couldn't go sleeveless anymore. There's that little bulge below the arm pit that I don't want to be seen.

[SoCalDem]

22. and the "extra" wave too.

:)

[enlightenment]

37. Gads yes.

Little wave -- I could do a fair imitation of Rocky the Flying squirrel!

On the up side, all that covered up flesh looks really nice since it hasn't been baked to a cinder by the sun . . .

[DoYouEverWonder]

38. Doesn't gravity suck?

This wasn't suppose to happen. Oh well, screw it.

[SoCalDem]

41. Just stay away from mirrors, and you can be the age you are in your head

:hi:

[DoYouEverWonder]

43. My electrician thought I was nuts

when I didn't want bright lights in my bathroom. Dim lights and a few marguarita's and anything can look good. I swear that is why mammals lose their vision has they get older.

[SoCalDem]

45. You are probably right..and in an evolutionary way it makes sense

too.. Gotta have sharp eyesight to protect the little babies from swooping eagles & fast predators, but once they are grown...the vision doesn"t need to be as acute :)

[evox]

24. Who cares

Maybe thats just the way she likes to dress in public.

[RebelOne]

40. That's true. Maybe she does not want to show

her imperfections. Can't blame her.

[Clark2008]

44. Yeah, but you could wear T-shirts with sleeves that go to just

above the elbow.

She doesn't even do that!

[proud patriot]

7. no and it's always bothered me

years ago there was a picture of her , bush and this other
couple at kennybunkport walking . Everyone was in shorts
and short sleeved shirts except for laura who was in shorts
with a long sleeve shirt on ...I was tripping on it then .

[lutefisk]

23. I really wonder about this, too. There must be a reason.

For starters, is the reason physical or psychological- or a combnation? Let's see what she wears in August...

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. She probably has baggy upper arms, like many women her (and my) age.

We used to call them "Music Teacher Arms." Now I have them, :( and I don't go sleeveless any more, either.

[existentialist]

9. No confirmation, of course

but certainly nothing in the picture to dispel the rumors of her being "heavily medicated". The only person in the pictures with discernible long sleeves, and also one of only three with sunglasses.

And her "Stepford Wives" smile doesn't answer any questions either.

[Up2Late]

10. They probably look like this...

[dipsydoodle]

26. Needle tracks

occured to me.

[Cooley Hurd]

12. I thought everyone knew this - she's covering up her tattoo...

I heard she got it one messed-up, PCP-induced weekend...:evilgrin:

[pitohui]

13. it's her age, my friend

i was taught that a lady doesn't bare her arms after age 16, a rule that even my mom has long ago discarded, but women in the political eye in a conservative town like dc in a conservative job like first lady are obliged to cover the arms

[QuestionAll...]

21. american taliban 'Armka'? wow, never heard of this before.

about the not showing your arms over a certain age.

wierd shit learned all the time. and getting wierder.

[Jersey Devil]

15. Maybe she has Hell's Angels tatoos

I really couldn't give a #$%#$%$#%

[jmowreader]

16. If you're thinking what I think you're thinking, the answer is no

It's not tracks.

Rich women don't shoot up in the arms like normal junkies do; it's tacky. Rich women shoot up between their toes, so their husbands won't realize they've been mainlining.

What she's trying to cover up are the half-sleeve tattoos she received on both arms while a freshman in college trying to pledge a sorority. While distinctly feminine--thousands of interlocking flowers of all varieties--rich Christian Republican women simply do not wear massive tattoos.

[buff2]

17. They are probably severely wrinkled

and she's too ashamed to let anyone see them. Repukes think she is so pretty anyway.....seeing wrinkled arms on her would send those phuckers into a state of shock. :rofl:

[MrCoffee]

19. Jailhouse tats n/t

[Bucky]

25. FOUND 'EM!! Pictures of LAURA BUSH'S ARMS!! I'M SERIES!!1!

Thank God for Google. (oh, and thank that Russian dude who invented Google, too)







but no, the arm flab theory don't wash

[otohara]

27. LOL

especially the smoking one!

[Bucky]

28. Dude!

They're all smokin'

[lutefisk]

29. Well done- which one is the fake?

That last one is real, right? Is that from the night she told the story about George and the two horses?

It looks like she still has some kind of lacy "sleeves" obscuring the arms, but that's the barest I've seen. Thanks. I think.

[Johnyawl]

30. Have you seen a picture taken in the past 14 years of HRC's bare arms?

Or <shudder> Ma Bush's? Or Nancy Reagan, Rosylyn Carter?

Show me a picture on anyFirst Lady, or female Senator, with bare arms.

[lutefisk]

32. Not HRC, but here's another First Lady:

[maxsolomon]

31. big arms are the bane of this nation

-from the original 'what not to wear' book, about britain.

but applicable here, i'd wager. cankles, big caboose, big arms.

[Midlodemocrat]

34. It's her age. I never wear sleeveless shirts anymore either.

The world isn't ready for it.

[calico1]

35. At that age, unless you are lifting weights

(and she doesn't look like she does) it's best to not go sleeveless. Why the interest in her bare arms anyway? :shrug:

[mcscajun]

36. Maybe she's had some minor bouts with melanomas, OR...

Perhaps she's taking medication that requires that she avoid sunlight. There are Lots of Those.

Bottom line: Who gives a flying ecclesiastical fuck whether she bares her arms or not?

[Bethany Rockafella]

39. If I were her, I wouldn't go sleeveless either.

But I'm surprised Bush wasn't caught picking his nose again.

[lutefisk]

42. Looks like they taught him to hold his arm down to avoid picking

He's an idiot, but he can be trained.

[niyad]

46. don't know about her, but I have to wear long sleeves, even in the hottest

of weather, because I am very sensitive to the sun (can look like a cooked lobster in less than 15 minutes)
