5. This is what I heard about the name
She named was after Buddy's often spoken of, but never seen wife on the old "Dick Van Dyke Show".

There have been long periods of time where Laura wasn't seen in public.

2. Pickles is developing a hefty beer gut there...
I've noticed of late she's really packing on the pounds, stress eating/drinking perhaps???

4. I don't think she's stressed in the least.
She lives in the bubble, takes her happy pills, sleeps well with her husband (much better than we all would think), and her daughters gallivant about South America. Life is good for the Bushes. For now.

6. If I was married to that man...
I would need to do this at least five time a day, to anesthetize myself into a sugar cocoon:

Deep fry one box of unwrapped Twinkies. Set fried Twinkies on a cookie sheet and drench with brownie
batter, one jar of Smucker's fudge sauce and a cup of pecans. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Cool.
Crumble 10 Snicker bars over the top. Add whip cream.

I bet that's what Pickles is doing right now.

20. It sounds like it doesn't it?
I said, a box of "unwrapped twinkies". I mean that the Twinkies should
be unwrapped or taken out of their plastic wrapping.

We shouldn't eat the wrappers. That would add fiber, and this concoction
is purely unhealthy and meant only to induce a sugar-induced state of denial.

3. No caption, but didn't white hose go out in the 80s?

And ferchrissakes, lengthen the jacket. She's too hippy to be wearing those cropped blazers.

Me-ow.

7. And I know a lot of people wear them
but I have never thought that the type of shoe Pickles is wearing really goes well with slacks.

13. A pic is worth a thousand words. Good comments!
The Chimp is surely looking chimpier.

Laura is thinking, "I'm sure looking fine today! Just watch me strut my stuff!"

16. sad to say, she must be watching What Not To Wear
She's following their rules. Nipped waist on the jacket, high heels, straight-legged pant.

But I wonder what they would say about the 3/4 sleeve and the white trouser hose.

18. Poor Pickles. She has her cross to bear.
She dresses badly, but so do virtually all First Ladies, because they are compelled to look stodgy and "respectable", which seems to translate into either ugly pastel pantsuits or Queen Elizabeth style dresses. If you're going to pick on her, pick her her willingness to defend her idiot of a husband.
