Where In Hell Has Laura Been In All This
George Bush and I are about the same age and have been married about equally long. It is unimaginable to me that were I George that my wife would not have have asked the question, "Did you lie this country into a way?" It is unimaginable that my wife would not have said "Did Karl give out that CIA agent's name?" (because she knows dam well he knows).

How could anyone presented with the suggestion that their spouse had lied our nation into a war and then abetted treason in covering it up, to the extent possible, and not ask the simple questions?

It is just unimaginable to me that this woman, presumed to be a person who reads newspapers or listens to radio and TV news like any person would not ask these questions. Accusations have been made and no answer given. How on earth can she not know? And what about the twins. Do they not speak to their father in confidence? Are all of them so utterly amoral or incurious as to not ask their closest family member those simple questions?

1. Perhaps she did, but how would we know?
I don't think the general public is privy (or should be) to private conversations.

2. Well - My Wife Would Have Left Me
If I were George Bush and gave honest answeres to both of those questions my wife would leave me. I am sure she would not say a thing about why, but I'm equall sure she could not continue to live with me.

11. Well, you can, but it takes quite a bit of energy
It's called massive denial.

3. however, i think that laura bush has to be an ostrich in order to survive
so many abuses ... and in fact ... she is an ostrich...she doesn't want to see, doesn't want to hear, and she certainly won't point to any leaky faucets in george's goonish government.

12. So is this James Carville's response as well?
His wife is in the thick of the WH scandals and he hasn't asked, "By the way dear, have you committed treason lately?"

14. Why just Laura?
All the wives and husbands of the Bush administration staffers are complicit as well, or deliberately deaf, dumb and blind.

So many people, so few consciences....

19. i think so...when mary matalin kept saying on the night of election from
hell that gore was not the winner (when he had been declared the winner) and she kept saying, "you keep watching, you will see it change..." i e-mailed james carville at crossfire many times asking what did mary matalin know and why did she know it... he never answered one single e-mail. he ignores what is convenient for him to ignore...i don't think much of him as a result.

4. She's just along for the ride
Edited on Sun Jul-24-05 05:29 PM by jmm
She was a Democrat before she married George and even has admitted in an interview she doesn't feel Roe v Wade should be overturned. But much like Poppy, W found himself a woman who wants to be the woman behind the man and doesn't feel it is her place to get too involved.

10. Laura stated openly to the press that she wanted a female
to replace O'Connor. She made her wishes known very publicly. Instead she's getting Roberts and with no public explanation by the WH.

Now if that isn't a smack in the face to the first lady (and by extension, all the women in the country that she represents), then I don't know what is.

22. I think the bu$hies told her to say that she wants a woman
just to make it look good. I think that her and her xanax truly don't give a sh*t. Just my opinion.

24. You really have to wonder what's going on in her head.
Edited on Sun Jul-24-05 07:09 PM by lady lib
Do those two talk - ever? I seriously don't understand how she can continue with that evil thug. I just think there isn't enough Xanax (or whatever the hell she's on) to make it feel tolerable. Maybe she doesn't give a shit. I don't know.

18. Laura Bush
...despite her librarian credentials, is a brain-dead zombie who lives on Xanax and never thinks that her husband could be flushing our country and the world down the toilet. Last year, when someone asked her if she'd seen FAHRENHEIT 9/11, she laughed and said, "What do you think?"

21. She's too hyped up on
xanax to give a damn!!She's only in this marriage for the money, why else would she have married an idiot son of a rePuke? Her parents were Dems from what I understand. Besides, the right wing religious nuts believe that the man is the boss and a woman should honor her man.

23. She is as much as a political operative,
as her husband and Karl Rove. I have no faith in her to do the right thing which would be not to polish up her husband's image when he goes down in the polls

25. Are you kidding? There are PLENTY of wives who know their husbands are
guilty of cheating on them, abusing their children, committing all kinds of crimes, who NEVER ask anything about this. They may "know" in a roundabout way, but as long as they don't have to be confronted with the explicit truth of this, everything's OK and they can keep going to Neiman Marcus and buy the nice furs and such.

Getting her animatronics upgraded. The upgrades are then tested in the Hall of Presidents, where she plays Franklin Pierce for a week.

27. If she tells, she'll be dead by 7:am - remember, she's the one with
the brains in the family.
