Poll question: Is It Wrong to Confess Loathing for Barbara Bush?
Not the young drunk. The bitter biddy.

4. Couldn't believe the Times this morning.
What a drooling, insipid article they had about her.

However, after reading it, I thought it was somewhat obvious that "W" is not her favorite kid.

5. She may have been "First Lady" but she definitely wasn't the "Only Lady"

The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that George (Poppy) Bush did INDEED have a girlfriend while he was in the White House.

6. She was more like the Church Lady
which is probably where W. gets the Church Lady smirk from.

11. Ha-ha! That's a good point!
It's amazing to me that these rich bitches care more for staying married to the money than they do about whether their husbands are faithful or not. I include Laura Bush in that too.

I'm glad money doesn't mean that much to me and I can make enough for myself.

20. I heard about Pops Girl also
Supposedly she flew in a different jet than he when he puked in Japan. I have a feeling Pops is a softy. That is why he took a girlfriend cuz Barb 'Da' Butcher is a mean sun-of-a-gun.
Those Grannys can whoop some ass...Watch yourself!

Loathing, I'm not so sure that's good for the soul, though.

10. remember . . .
Bab's interview with Diane Sawyer when she said:

"Why should we hear about body bags and deaths and how many, what day it's going to happen, and how many this or what do you suppose? Oh, I mean, it's, not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"

18. Beautiful mind???
I won't stoop to mention what toll her life choices have evidently taken on her looks, but my god in heaven - to reference the despoiling of her beautiful mind by troublesome, pesky little details like wars of aggression (committed by her son and husband)and the death of other human beings (at the Bush boys hands) is beyond arrogance.

21. She deserves ALL the loathing she inspires...
Her milk first curdled for me when she said what she thought of Geraldine Ferraro in 1984: "..Rhymes with 'witch'". But when she uttered those words to Diane Sawyer, and showed the contempt that she, and undoubtedly her husband, had for our men and women in uniform, and their families to boot, that did it for me. Daily KOS is dead-on on this one: "Barbara Bush is a Bitch!" :grr:

BTW, I'm convinced that when Mr. "Kinder and Gentler" didn't show up for any memorial services for the Desert Storm dead, that was the breaking point for many Desert Storm vets--and their families--which turned them against him, and helped to elect Clinton. On that one, Dub is following the same script as his wimpy father and equally-hateful-and-vindictive mother...hopefully, with the EXACT SAME RESULT that Poppy got!:mad:

She's a mean, arrogant, rich, awful old woman...kind of the "Little Oral Annie" Coulter of the WWII generation, in my book! :mad:

B-)

is one of the worst.

12. she's an evil bitch
She's going to be on Larry King Wednesday night. Call her up and give her a piece of your mind. Bring up the fact she went golfing the day her daughter died.

17. Why has no reporter ever asked her, "Bar, if you're so nice, why did you..
...raise such rotten kids!?!?"

Worst example of good parenting in the history of mankind!

19. She appears to be a Grandma type
But she's actually more like what people accuse Hillary of being...
Don't let her G-Ma look fool ya. I've heard she's a real piece of work. If you wonder then why is Dubya her fav? Well he's just like his Ma. He's got a real nasty streak as well. He plays it off being the nice cowboy but he's not really. Wonder why he and KKKarl Rove get along? Wonder no more kids...

40. CONs are masters at transference and projection...and I never waste
an opportunity to remind them of their hypocrisy. Every label they nastily pin on others ususally ends up being much more fitting for them.

25. I find loathing to be an unpleasant experience.
It would be impossible to eradicate the feeling without recognizing its existence.

26. You ask Geraldine Ferraro
Bar says she meant "witch" when she called GF something that rhymes with rich. Uh-huh.

Still, I don't loathe her. Would just like to disabuse the public of any image of her as kind, straight-talking, etc. Just another upper-class zeeb from Ashley Hall all grown up.

32. That woman is nothing but evil in a BIG BLUE SUIT
In fact I just refer to her as the big blue suit. She has a lot of nerve talking about anyone being a sorry bunch after that sorry bunch of crooks and boobs she raised.

She was in the news today, bagging on *all* the Democratic candidates.

Who the hell asked her?

42. She shoulda' had her tubes tied!
And, George I shoulda' had a vasectomy, too! It woulda' saved us all a lot of aggravation and grief! Think of how many innocent lives would have been saved in Texas, Florida, as well as the other 48 states...and, in Iraq!

This so-called 'first lady' is a wicked low-life...not to mention the 'mother of the beast'.
