Laura Bush: Some Good Came From Attacks
First Lady Says People Appreciate Families, Friends More
Posted: 3:31 p.m. EST November 8, 2001

WASHINGTON -- First lady Laura Bush is seeing a lot of positive
changes in the
country, in the nearly two months since the terrorist attacks.

For one thing, she said, Americans are appreciating their
families and their friends

Speaking Thursday at the National Press Club, the first lady
said Americans are
keeping in touch by phone more than they used to.

She also said people who used to view their government with
cynicism now have a
new "appreciation and respect for public servants."

3. To sad
That the public servants do not have appreciation and respect for the American people. I am going this weekend to NYC to enjoy all the 'unworthy' landmarks according to the 'unworthy' Mr. Chertoff.

8. "Americans are appreciating their families ..."
And this is based on what? Oh, yes, she pulled it out of her ass. That's where the typical freeper gets his facts. (Their own asses, not Pickles').

14. That's how I found it - was looking for the Newsweek article from
Nov 2001 mentioning "the funnies" and discovered this instead. I do have an archive for these.

12. Laura's been exposed to Babs too long
Edited on Fri Jun-02-06 04:46 PM by LiberalPartisan
Remember this little gem from the cow that begat Dubya?


Accompanying her husband, former President George
H.W.Bush, on a tour of hurricane relief centers in
Houston, Barbara Bush said today, referring to the
poor who had lost everything back home and evacuated, "This is working very well for them."

** Yes, I know Laura's comment preceded Babs' but the exposure has been long term.

13. Maybe it is just the drug cocktail talking
That bit about cynics suddenly appreciating and respecting government because of an attack is classic. I SO appreciate a government whose head sat in a classroom reading a book about goats for several minutes after the attack, then played Commando in his plane the rest of the day. And it only took a few thousand Americans dead to open my eyes. :eyes: Thanks for that turd especial, Madame Stepford, thanks a big, fricking steaming heap.
