When Bush made fun of a reporter's garb, one said "Your mother raised ...

[Bozita]

... you better than that."

It came in quite clearly.

[Not_Giving_Up]

1. Well, obviously she didn't

Just look at all the trouble he's caused!

[Mandate My Ass]

2. He's his mother's child alright

"those Katrina victims are doing really well for themselves..." :eyes:

[bowens43]

3. You got that right....

"But 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? "

Barbra Bush

4. Obviously that reporter does not know Bar. She has a mean streak also.

And like * she is not even clever about it. Remember her "rhymes with witch" statement about Kitty Dukakis?

6. Geraldine Ferraro.

AUTHOR: Barbara Bush
QUOTATION: I can’t say it, but it rhymes with rich.
ATTRIBUTION: On her husband’s opponent, Democratic vice-presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro; she later telephoned Ferraro to apologize for referring to her as a witch, NY Times 15 Oct 84

8. Right you are. Yegads my memory is shot. Not only did I have the

target wrong but the word she used as well. But I think she still meant "bitch" not "witch".

[GreenArrow]

12. she meant bitch

let's not be naive.

[sarge43]

7. "Mean streak"?

She's ugly to bone. Remember her "I can't bother my beautiful mind" crack when asked about the casualities in Iraq? The rotten apple didn't fall far from that shriveled tree.

[yellowcanine]

5. It is a good sign that some are finally standing up to the bullying -

however too little and too late.

[Supersedeas]

11. it will be buried

[mcscajun]

9. Bar: the source from whom all evil flows...

She didn't raise him right AT ALL.

NFW

[TomInTib]

16. Remember what Nixon said about her?

Along the lines of, 'You have to give her credit, that woman really knows how to hate".

[mcscajun]

17. No, I hadn't recalled that one. Although I certainly was around

and politically active in the 60s.

Thanks for refreshing my memory on that score. :)

[stepnw1f]

10. No Kidding? Good... He Should Be Treated

with constant disrespect.

[maxrandb]

13. Didn't Nixon say something like

"God, that woman, she really knows how to HATE"

Pretty bad when even Tricky Dick thinks you're evil. Of course, he may have simply been admiring her for her hatred skills.

[patricia92243]

14. So, what is the rest of the story? What did Bush say then? Or how did he

look? Did he in anyway acknowledge that he heard what was said.

I bet that poor reporter will be transfered to another beat - if not out right fired.

[Marie26]

15. What did Bush say? nt

[kskiska]

18. Something like, "I hear seersucker is coming back,"

implying that her outfit was out of style.

[Bozita]

19. Yup, that was it!

[Jacobin]

20. Oh isn't it so cutesy wootzy how they play with each other

Fucking press corps clown yahoos, trying to 'be cool' and curry favor with the goddamned moron.

I could scream.

[Rex]

21. Mommy Dearest was always one Valium away from reality.

Bush was raised by a pack of wolves (no offense to real wolves) IMO.

[sendero]

22. I never cease to be amazed..

.. at how small a man George Bush is. He's just a petty, sniveling brat.
