What Is Up With Babs and Poppy?
I mean, how pathetic is this?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Former first lady Barbara Bush and mother of President Bush described Democrats trying to unseat her son in the White House as a "sorry group" of politicians.


"So far, they are a pretty sorry group if you want to know my opinion," said Mrs. Bush in an interview aired on Monday by NBC's "Today" show, when asked about the Democratic line-up for the 2004 presidential election.
Aww, mamma . . .
Her husband also had some harsh words for the Democratic contenders whom he accused of using "vicious rhetoric."


"The one who makes the most outrageous charges against the president gets his 20 seconds on the evening news. Hey I did not ride in here on a watermelon cart. I know how it works," said the former president.

Now Y'all leave Junior alone so he can finish stealing what I didn't get during my terms. So just stop saying that !

That's right, you tell 'em Poppy

1. Mommy and Daddy coming to the rescue
Just like they have done all his life, covering up his incompetance and buying him the presidency.

Boy, the B*sh boys sure have had their day today. First the pResident gets the partial birth abortion ban, and little brother gets to act like God and let the State decide that they can overturn a court ruling they don't like. Let's save this poor woman, but how many death row inmates have they killed??????

3. I have been overwhelmed by
how much airtime this incubus and succubus have had lately, on CNN, Today Show, and GMA. Free media promotion for the reich-wing.

9. Poppy sure does know how it works since...
his boy Lee Atwater wrote the book on vicious rhetoric, dirty tricks and attack, attack, attack campaigning. This crime family needed to be rounded up and rode out on a rail a long time ago.

10. Media is on a Bush family ass-kiss-athon
CNN is doing the "Flyboy's Story" crap in heavy rotation, while Babs is profiled on Paula Zahn's show, or some such crap, and pushing her book all over the place. Rove is marketing to the Wal Mart Nation again, and he's good at it.

He can't appear to be pushing Chimpy this way. First of all, there simply are no heroic or inspiring stories about 43. CNN doing half an hour about the night Bush used his own driver to go into town for a second keg on that cold, snowy night at Yale, does not a legend make. So, they go one better...serve up Babs and Poppy like a big steaming pile of apple pie.

Wal Mart Nation eats it up, and transfers its own guilt for screwing up their own kids. They understand poor Bab's plight...George W always tried so hard, but he could never seem to live up to Jebbie. So he was always fighting with Poppy, almost as if screaming "Daddy, notice me! Love me!" But she loves all her boys, she has to. A mother has to. Wal Mart Nation has to, too.

George gets another pass, this time by proxy.

12. Like the flyboy dress-up photo op, this is really going to backfire...

14. "Hey I did not ride in here on a watermelon cart."
Sure sounds a bit racist.

Or just to my thinking? Not quite sure how the bigot-wink works in Kennebunkport. Doubt they have any watermellon carts 'round there--last I heard they're big on Segways.

16. The thing I thought when I read that line was:
Gee, so you are saying you are a pro at campaigning and at running for and being president.
That must be why you got re-elected in a landslide, right?

Oh, you were not re-elected????

Oh....

So then I guess you don't know what you are talking about....

15. Hi, Snazzy
glad you could join us :hi:

It's actually quite fun to get the news here first. This article (about MA-BUSh get it?) appeared here yesterday.

Then, I jump back to the article on MSN. It's a kick because I already read what they think about her here!
