Barbara Bush to campaign in Boca, dahhhhling. $1000. for a photo
Hey, where is "W"? My GOODNESS but the President seems to be Campaign Trail poison this year, no?


=====
Former First Lady Barbara Bush will speak in Boca Raton on Wednesday, Oct. 11, at a private fundraising luncheon in support of the re-election of U.S. Rep. E. Clay Shaw.

This luncheon is being hosted by Yvonne Boice, a Boca businesswoman and philanthropist, who said: "We are honored and delighted that Mrs. Bush has chosen to visit Boca Raton in support of Congressman Shaw."

"Having met Mrs. Bush on several occasions, I've always been impressed by her insightful and inspiring speeches," said Boice. "Considering her unique role in history, being both a president's wife and a mother, this is truly a momentous event."

The luncheon will be held at noon at the Boca Raton Country Club on Congress Avenue across from Costco. It will be preceded by an 11 a.m. photo opportunity. The price of the photo op and luncheon is $1,000. Luncheon only is $500.

RSVP to Cyndi or Bernice at 1-800-552-2793 by Oct. 9.

8. Costco is a "blue" company.
I doubt they'd do anything to aid and abet that old hag's visit.

2. kinda fitting init? Barbara Bush/Boca Raton
http://www.ci.boca-raton.fl.us/econ/history.cfm

"The meaning of the name Boca Raton has always aroused curiosity. Many people wrongly assume the name is simply Rat’s Mouth. The Spanish word boca (or mouth) often described an inlet, while raton (literally mouse) was used as a term for a cowardly thief. But the “Thieves Inlet,” Boca Ratones, appeared on eighteenth century maps associated with an inlet in the Biscayne Bay area of Miami."

12. Ask Her About Her Asbestos Pearl String
Poppy and Mommy Bush got their big fat trust funds from Prescott Bush's Asbestos Shame:

Which patrician anniversary is "asbestos"? She already got the pearls.
