Barbara Bush's view on Al Gore (Suprising)
With her view on the current Dems, this is suprising:

http://www.tennessean.com/opinion/columnists/morrow/archives/03/10/41408144.shtml?Element_ID=41408144

Former first lady Barbara Bush says after attending the inauguration of her son, George W. Bush Jan. 20, 2001, her thoughts were on Al Gore.

The president's mother, whose new book, Reflections: Life After the White House, is excerpted in Newsweek, wrote from that day, ''I know I should be thinking marvelous deep and lofty thoughts, but I find myself thinking of Al Gore and what he must be feeling. I'm sure he thinks he won the race, and although I don't, I do feel sorry for him. He is gracious and a minute ago came over to shake our hands and to meet Jenna and Barbara, George and Laura's twin daughters. We've lost, and losing is not easy.''

1. Well, damn, this makes it all better - I think I will vote Republican now
thanks Babs. /sarcasm

I wonder how many RW speechwriters had to combine their work to actually create a voice that at least seems to contain empathy? I am certain that the graciousness was a shocker - something never exhibited by any Bush.

11. Surprised? No, she's a condescending witch.
To paraphrase: "oh, the poor, pathetic loser..."

She's not being nice, she's being condescending.

And she can kiss my ass, because Al Gore DID win.
