Laura Bush, please stay away from Diplomatic duties
Usually when a tragedy strikes like a cyclone or a hurricane, one would think that Laura Bush would flash the face of being compassionate to all the suffering people instead of an attack dog politician. Wouldn't there have been a better time to criticize the government?
When a country run by a despotic and isolationist regime is laid low by a massive natural disaster, the diplomatic thing to do is to respond with a show of compassion. Not kick 'em when they're down.
More than 22,000 people have died in the staggering devastation caused by this weekend's cyclone in Burma. But when First Lady Laura Bush made her first-ever visit to the White House briefing room yesterday, to talk about what's going on in that country, it was not to deliver a message of goodwill.
Rather than announce the launch of a massive relief effort that could take advantage of a rare diplomatic opening, the first lady instead tossed insults at Burma's leaders, blamed them for the high death toll, and lashed out at their decision to move forward with a constitutional referendum scheduled for this Saturday.
The traditionally issue-averse first lady's concerns about the Burmese junta and its abuses of human rights date back several years, and she's been particularly outspoken since last fall.
But why respond to a catastrophe with such hostility? The awkward timing, as it turns out, may have had something to do with an event entirely unrelated to the cyclone.
"I'm going to leave tomorrow for Crawford, for Jenna's wedding, and I wanted to be able to make a statement about Burma before I left," the first lady told reporters.
Guess Jenna won't be honeymooning in Myanmar after all.
ms. bush married him...that is all that need be said
Yeah Pickles. They were third world slum dwellers anyway, so this cyclone will work out well for them.
marko @ 2:
And Barbara Bush is her mother - in- law - "the fruit does not fall far from the tree"
Of course, the US always responds to natural disasters with the utmost efficiency and concern for human life...
Those assholes (Bush and Co) did a great job on New Orleans, so they can afford to be critical. I can't wait till these white trash fucking pukes are out of office.
She's brain-damaged from Bush's rancid seed.
More "Compassionate Conservatism", "now watch this drive".
I don't remember them marching Laura out in the Katrina aftermath. Or do they think that since she got on camera today and pleaded for a good cause his poll ratings will shoot up? And is new son in law Henry planning on serving a year in Afghanistan or Iraq to show his support for the war has new daddy in law started? Just a thought.
"I’m going to leave tomorrow for Crawford, for Jenna’s wedding..."
Keep an eye out for stop signs, Madam First Lady. You know how you sometimes "overlook" those.
Shocking! You mean she's an arsehole too?
Don't you people get it? What the people of Myanmar need right now is a reading initiative! And who better to fire that up than the First Librarian?
YEESH!
one word: KATRINA.....or as old laura referred to it at the time "KARINA"
is it 1/20/09 yet?
This group will never let up on us.
They will be causing us pain until the day the moving trucks haul
their sorry asses out of the White House.
They have no class whatsoever.
Why the world didn't get together and "obliterate" our obnoxious selves
for electing so incompetent a leader is something to be grateful for.
Why did Laura make this speech instead of bush? Who the fu*k is she to criticize the way another country handles a disaster? This might have been a good time to STFU.
I heard today we are sending something like a whopping two hundred million in aid. Before we got into the habit of invading non-threatening countries, the world used to look to us to provide all sorts of amazing aid at a time like this.
I've often wondered why this poor woman has really spoke up in these eight miserable years, now I understand why....she sounds dumber than her husband.
Wow, she criticized a regime's failure to respond to it's people in time of need... like KATRINA!!
Laura Bush...reinforcing religious justification for keeping women quiet and pregnant.
She basically said, this disaster was a bummer and could have been handled better. Now that I have have said the required bull shit that is expected at a time like this, I'm outta here and off to fun times in Crawford.
So quick to assign blame, and so slow to take responsibility.
Albatross @ 17:
No doubt our astute MSM will be quick to make that same comparison!!!
I don't think anyone anticipated this breach of diplomatic etiquette.
You're either part of the solution, part of the problem or part of the landscape.
What complete 'TARDs. Their clueless mentality never ceases to amaze. Slackjawed bornagain's in charge of the store gets you this FIASCO. I guess the USA truly has earned it's representative government. Fucking morons voted for these assholes TWICE. Enjoy the recession.
Who cares about 22,500 dead peasants, she needed to get her talking points out.
These people do not give a damn about anyone with a net worth less than $10 million.
What was unspoken but very much part of the core beliefs of Laura Bush and her family, is that GOD punished those poor suffering bastards in Myanmar. That's why she felt it appropriate to lash out in hostility during a humanitarian emergency - because her GOD lashed out to smite the heathens. It's par for the course with these cold, inhuman Bushs - remember Babs and her "beautiful mind" and how the blacks in the Astrodome were really better off there? Subhumans, the lot of them.
Pat J @ 9:
Laua called it hurricane Corina.And a definite,maybe(not) to the question of Henry doing a stint in the Middle East.
how can anyone miss the parallel with Katrina?
Bush held back Army rescue for three days to use as leverage in his petty power spat with the Governor over who was in charge. while people died.
now he/she is holding back Burma relief as leverage with the Junta for whatever reason. while people die.
human lives are just pawns in the power game for the Bushies. 9/11, Irag, you name it. hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of innocent lives lost, just so they can get leverage and power.
what monsters.
She has a hell of a lot of nerve to criticize the government of any other country. Look at the mess her very own husband made with Katrina.
Hypocrite thy name is Laura Bush.
maybe we'll wake up sunday morning to the news of a natural disaster* having hit crawford, texas. a man can dream, can't he?
*not to be confused with the man-made disaster of another bush procreating in the future.
Liberal AND Proud @ 18:
OH GOD NO! Not pregnant! I sure as hell don't want these people to breed anymore!
Why do we need to pay Perino? Let Laura handle the bullshitting of the Bush administration press office. She's perfect for it.
projection. the ultimate form of irony.
Her husband is responsible for the deaths of 1 million Iraqi human beings, and shes up there criticizing another countries government.
Trust me, The whole world is laughing their asses off at this repressed, pathetic woman's hypocrisy.
litmus @ 30:
She wakes up to a natural disaster every day! LOL! He's lying next to her.
Heck of a job, Barbie!
Perhaps Laura Bush is waiting till after the wedding of her daughter to announce which of her daughters will be joining the army in order to support their father's less than noble cause by fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan.
I always thought it would be kind of neat to see Lewis Black be the press spokesman for the Bush WH. Naw, his head would explode after the first 10 minutes of trying to keep his lies straight.
and now we know why the daughters are such wh@res.
the father and now the mother are social and political retards.
laura was a teacher? what did she teach?
arrogance laced with ignorance?
Someone made pickles in the bed.
What the hell is wrong with these people? Is the irony of Katrina completely lost? I can only assuage my confusion by imagining some speechwriter somewhere, who is actually a foe of Bush, devising these things to make him and his coterie look as horrible as possible. There is no other explanation. It is not possible to be this outrageously stupid and blinkered unless you're doing it deliberately.
How is it even possible that this bitch Laura doesn't remember the complete inaction of her own husband regarding Katrina?
Every single thing this vacant eyed cow says could and should be directed right back at her soulless eyes and her deadbeat, ever vacationing husband.
remember when she didn't know the name of Hurricane Katrina? http://prisonplanet.com/Pages/Sept05/100905wife.htm
George bush's track record is intact. He didn't show up to speak at the podium after Katrina happened either. Seems it took him a day or so to show up after 9-11 too.
You know, that reason why she was the one to talk to the press yesterday... because she had to leave and wouldn't be there for the congressional gold medal ceremony because of Jenna's wedding prep? Well, gee, who was standing behind W today during said ceremony?
While Bush will likely go down in history as this country's worst president ever, Laura will be utterly forgotten. And for good reason. She is -- generously -- an absolute zero.
It's great to see the Bush administration demonstrating all it has learned about diplomacy over the past seven plus years.
The great diplomat, at a time of tragedy, always uses the opportunity to kick his opponent. How, better to show off the virtues of compassionate conservatism than to preface aid with a laundry list of self-serving criticism?
i too thought this was totally bizzare...but then, as i was watching her my mind was substututing hurricane katrina and she could have been saying the same thing about her lil' georgie....
Besides the obvious hypocrisy from these residents of the white house and Katrina , what is going on attacking and criticizing the country in the middle of a catastrophe and declaring how they should react . There's got to another agenda at play , because we know the bush regime is one of the most blood thirsty and predatory regimes ever and nothing is said or done with out some desired outcome .
Do they have OIL ?
Are they refusing World Bank policies ?
Because it's not like we hate doing business with Military Dictatorships , we did in El Salvador, Guatemala , Iraq , Iran , the Congo , Kenya , Haiti , Libya etc etc .
Don't you think they sent Laura out because Bush scolding another leader for inaction during a natural disaster would have been absurd? That's got to be it. But how sad is it when the country that should be a moral leader in the world doesn't have a moral leader to send out to scold military dictatorships? how far we have fallen.
Is it just me or does this cold hearted snob of an excuse for a woman look like Jack Nicholson when he played the Joker in Batman.....
The makeup puts here in her place.
When I first read about this I had to laugh. If her husbands response to Katrina is any indication. She needs to shut the f*ck up and get to Crawford before causing any more noise about other countries supporting disasters. After 8 years the Bush's are suddenly caring about humanitarian issues? Please...give me a break.
[snark]
Just think, in 2016 she will be running for President because of all of the experience she has learned over the past 8 years of being in the White House. Remember, being the First Lady qualifies you for running for the highest elected position in the US.
[/snark]
ugh.
I guess the government of Myanmar was planning a GAY PRIDE PARADE that WHITE JESUS didn't approve of. Anyone see if GODHATESMYANMAR is up over at Westboro Baptist?
Pete @ 41, I couldn't have said it better. These people are creeps of the highest order. 'I'm off to a wedding let them eat cake'.
And the basic rule is vindicated yet again. Republicans condemn those activities of which they are the world's most ardent practitioners. To wit, another idiot Bush speaks:
Katrina, you fucking bitch!
Katrina, you fucking bitch!
No Child's Behind Left. S-CHIP. Fuck you!
What's our once-wealthy nation done lately, Laura? What do we produce besides war?
Like your husband's evil priorities, you fucking bitch!
Like Florida 2000, and all the subsequent gay-bashing, and orchestrated anti--gay marriage amendments to state constitutions, used as a wedge issue for the 2004 election. Like the elections in Iraq.
Routine Bushian practices.
Much better that the regime simply fire the military officials if they won't act like a dictatorial junta, right?
Florida 2000; voter purges happening right now; forcing elderly people to show id's they won't have in time, if they can get them at all; routine bullying of minorities.
Free speech zoning; people arrested for wearing T-shirts; inability to attend Bush "town meetings" without being a Bush sycophant.
Seigleman; Sheehan; and on the flip side, Scooter.
But when the entire fucking world hates us for killing people all over the entire fucking world, we shouldn't take our cues from the international community, what with those Geneva Conventions being quaint relics, and America's dire need to defend itself from ghosts.
And now you're off to your daughter's wedding?
Hey, Laura. FUCK YOU!
Is she talking about Burma or America under the Bush regime?
So bashing Bush for Katrina is fine but don't dare critisize the regime of Burma??
WTF???!
Billzebub @ 49:
Ahhh come on. Chris Matthews thinks she beautiful. Or did he say lovely, or gorgeous. I don't know, but he thinks she's hot. Me, I just don't see it.
Lil Q @ 57:
chris matthews thinks his dogs butt looks cute.
What a self-centered, selfish c-bomb.
Joe! @ 56:
Joe, no one says not to bash Burma, bash the fuck away. But what we are saying is that Laura, not George, had to come out and scold them because he's a fuck up himself. That's pathetic.
Liberal AND Proud @ 36:
Is he lying next to her or lieing next to her?
I thought I was the only one who noticed this. The First Lady takes advantage of a natural disaster with a tragic death toll to criticize the Burmese government? Why was she even at the press conference? No offense Laura but I think you should stick to libraries and leave the international politics to the diplomats.
Joe! @ 56:
Well, you seem to have an opinion. State it.
Thing is, I think most of us would agree if you said that the government of Myanmar is bad. Actually, I assume that's the way that most people who know what's happened in Myanmar feel about it.
Which returns us to the First Librarian: Why the hell do you send her on any sort of diplomatic mission to a nation rife with complications?
Well at least she didn't say they were better off like that old bag in pearls Barbara Bush said about the Katrina victims standed in the Houston Astrodome. Guess that makes Laura a "compassionate conservative" by comparison to Barbara.
Maybe they are thinking about Laura Bush as McCain's VP. She's been very supportive of his candidacy. Hmmmm. McCain/Bush 08 you heard it hear first!
Andy K Jong Il @ 63:
Okay, not sending her to Myanmar- and you sure as fuck can't do that now!- but even having her address it at a WH press briefing? WTF?!? What's her expertise?
off to attend a wedding huh....
what is it with this family and their propensity for eating cake when shit floods and people die?
This is Laura's Foreign policy experience that the media will be touting. "Well she made a harsh comment to Myanmar!" Seriously at this point, Laura has more foreign policy experience than Bush did when he first took office. I'm frightened by my own paranoid ramblings. Are there a lot of staircases in the whitehouse?
I thought I heard Marnie Vander Helsing (or was it Maureen Dowd?) on Hardball today talk about it. I guess so.
Hold on, remember how Laura was right out front after that Tsunami hit Sri Lanka? Oops. Me neither.
did she complain about state-run media?
"Ah leavin' ta-morrow for ma daughter's weddin' but before Ah do that Ahm a-gonna take a great big dump on some cyclone victims"
fuck it. I'm calling her a bitch!
Did'nt they make a made-for-tv movie about Laura and her husbands whirlwind romance in the 70s? I think it was called "Like Normal People" starring Shaun Cassidy and Linda Purl.
Joe! @ 56:
Are you really that vapid? Do you really think that we're complaining that the Burmese military junta is beyond criticism? That the only criticism allowed is of American officials?
How does one survive in such a complicated world with such a simplistic understanding of it?
Funny, I don't remember Myanmar having a gay pride parade lately.
LibertyLover @ 70:
Who was it that took point after the tsunami....Hmmmmm...Oh, yeah, Stupor Mundi's two greatest political nemeses: Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush.
Can't let that happen again, now.
Sociopaths only appear normal. It doesn't take much to see behind their thin veneer of fake "socially acceptable" behavior, but since they think looking and speaking as if they were normal will fool us all, they have no idea how transparent their pathology is when they open their mouths and talk.
The connection with Katrina will never occur to Pickles, because we're Americans, see? Those other people are dirty brown foreigners who hate freedom, see?
What are the odds a f-5 hits crawford this weekend?
roooth @ 78:
I was just going to say something similar. That's the problem. The Republicans need to remove the Sociopath plank from their party platform.
Can someone explain to me the justification for freezing (seizing?) Burma's assets held in American institutions? Burma has a major catastrophe to deal with, and they will need a great deal of money to deal with it. So, are we trying to pressure their government, at the expense of the Burmese people? If so, it reeks of hypocrisy. The authoritarian regime of Bush II, and the rest of the right-wing republican lackeys, are constantly shoving this vision of the benevolent America down our throats. I remember a quote from Seattle Seahawks head coach Chuck Knox, "I cannot hear what you are saying, because I am too busy looking at what you are doing".
Andy K Jong Il @ 77:
You know what I remember from the tsunami that hit Thailand? I remember all the right-wing politicians and talk show hosts screaming about how America does too much to help people around the world, and that to criticize our weak support for the Thai people was just un-American.
MacDaKnife @ 81:
That's what we always do. In order to pressure a government that deliberately harms its own people, we impose sanctions that harm the people. We've been dong it to Cuba for decades. And you can listen to the embargo's supporters yammer endlessly about how we shouldn't deal with Cuba until it changes its ways, something they admit will never happen. All in the name of human rights. It's deadly nonsense.
Heard Rush Limpballs actually blame the massive death toll in Burma on the "lack of freedom" forcing people to live in dangerous and less than ideal locations...what do you guys make of that?
The Bush klan knows about repression.
Looks like Laura has reduced her intake of tranques.
LMAO @ Joe!
Having Laura Bush complain about other governments terrible reaction to disasters and the horrible stripping away of rights from the citizens is akin to Hannibal Lecter condemning Ed Gein for his table manners.
Get it now, dim-bulb?
slippy hussein toad @ 80:
Can't. All that's left of the Repug Party Platform are the Crazies.
The 4 legs of the Greedy Old Perverts platform: Murdering sociopaths, Closeted Homophobes, Pedophiles and Bizarre Religious Fanatics. Remove any of the legs and it will collapse, so they hold each other up. All they have is each other and their insanity.
The good news is that they're only 27% of the voting population, tops. The bad news is that they control the majority of our wealth and they believe they have a Divine Right to Have It All. Fear of losing control makes them desperate, and desperation will make them fight to the end, like the sick animals that they are.
Fucking patrician bitch! She is just as bad as her war criminal husband - and his fucking patrician bitch of a mother.
Please, First Ladies, STFU. You've not been elected to anything. You don't do anything meaningful for very good reason - you're not qualified to do anything meaningful. All you do is smile, cut ribbons, and have your opinions carry far too much weight solely because you got married and might sleep with the President. What does Laura Bush know about Burma/Myanmar, and who cares? Next thing you know she'll be claiming she's qualified to run a country or something. Think she's got enough family muscle to ensure an appointment for a springboard position? Like Senator? In a heartbeat. Then she can run for President and claim she's "experienced."
When I heard the news that laura tried to get off on the suffering I thought, oh no she didn't. Gawd, a wh full of loons.
women repugs and their balls
scalpel please
Boring Scott @ 76:
Actually, it was awesome. But this isn't related to that. This is just one of those quiet natural disasters that happens in countries most of the US Americans in Fox audiences can't find on a map, full of brown people who probably worship strange idols. 20,000? Does that have three zeros or four?
Officer Not-So-Friendly @ 74:
wow. Blast from the past.
I suggest surgery to have that part of your memory removed.
You'll thank me for it.
Hawk @ 8:
"... right over my ex-boyfriend!"
Pickles talks of government repression. What of the suffering of the Haitian people. GW toppled the democratically elected Aristead government and sent him packing. Bush made the Haitian's problems his problem, yet he lacks the cajones to address the issue.
Laura... you're pitiful and pathetic all at the same time. Here's my advice to you: go to Crawford to be with Jenna and STFU about the worldly things you know nothing about.
right on! @ 95:
Yeah, the brush in Crawford is growing pretty high. Somebody needs to go start cutting it down. Also, there's a bag of pretzels waiting to be choked on.
fiver @ 89:
HAHAHAHA
Right you are!
laura knows it's a "third world country" all she knows they didn't vacation their and hubby knows there isn't any oil there. they don't have a clue and don't mind proving it everyday, 24/7.
laurah: dearie can I travel fist class to the messy place?
chimp: no con..., (i mean) sweetiepoo
laurah: how dare they!
Shut her up! She's as much of an embarrassment to this country as her jackass husband. I'm ashamed. Thanks to all the fine, moralistic amuricans whose votes have given us 8 years of this. I hope your president invites all of you to Paraguay to have a beer with him.
helloooo burmese people!!!
you have just been
bushed!
I Agree...........
Laura should focus on one disaster at a time and should really focus on disasters we are facing here at home. She should start with the almost long forgotten by the Bush Administration......homeland security debacles particularly the dismal relief effort for the Victims of Katrina (not "Karina" a mistaken named by Laura Bush) Hurricane in Louisiana.
This compassionate gesture is appreciated but is not going to distract away from the failures of her husband and his administration in dealing with the disasters here at home.
1. A hole in the ground zero.
2. Katrina relief still at a snail pace progress.
3. Senseless; selfish war; which is based on fabricated illegal intelligence. Not for democracy and freedom but rather for OIL.
4. The shredding of our U.S. Constitution.
5. The illegal wiretapping of our citizens and the tortures employed in Guantanamo Bay of detainees.
6. The sub-standard VA hospitals that treats our injured soldiers and the vast neglect of our soldiers coming home.
7. The failure of the Educational System who was led by his appointed crony to Secretary of Education that proved that she is also a product of a failed education after the public witness her dismal score while competing at the World reknowned game show Jeapordy. What an embarrassment.
8. The failure to hold anyone of his cronies guilty of crime, accountable.
9. The numerous corporate white crimes could have been prevented had we have a strong federal and independent audit of corporate activities and adequate oversights and federal regulation to prevent such crimes.
10. And NOW the sub-prime; financial crisis that is touching every economic groups in this nation and the world business.
11. The unprecedented debts that the Bush agenda placed our nation to a near bankruptsy.
It is so easy and convenient to wage the peoples money (not theirs) to show compassion; What a hipocracy................
Evil do...Evil done..... nothing can change that ! Not even a MASK of compassion.
Haven't the Bushies done enough damage to AMERICA's reputation? Must they continue to display their TWO face? Enough is enough..........They can better serve this nation by just staying out of the way until the new President takes its role.
Joe!@56
I don't recall the First Lady of any other country bitch-slapping the Bush Administration for their handling of Katrina. This isn't just you or I speaking out - this is the First Lady. Apparently an even dumber [Deleted] than Barbara.
pete@86:
2 alternate analogies for you:
...is akin to the wife of the Klans Grand Wizard denouncing violence against blacks.
or to flout Godwin's Law:
... is akin to Eva Braun decrying the disappearance of the Jews.
orrwell
[You can find a better word to use. I'm sure of it. Site Monitor]
People please, the Bushes don't know what irony is. None of them can even spell the word.
Pardon me being rude and/or mean, but before Bushit gives a cent or an iota of help over there, he needs to give help to New Orleans. But that's never happening.
Bush cares nothing for helping the people in Myanmar. Despite multiple advance teams already there he still demands a separate US team which is unnecessary for disaster relief, but quite valuable for intelligence purposes.
Y'all can stop with the Hillary/Laura comparisons. They only reflect a very superficial understanding of what the two women bring to the table.
Hillary is a graduate of two of the top universities in the country, if not the world: B.A. from Wellsley and her law degree from Yale.
Laura went to a Texas university and got a teaching degree.
Hillary has been active in political work since she got her start working as an intern for the prosecuting attorneys in the Watergate trial.
Laura married a drunk and lived in Midland, TX.
Hillary continued her legal career up until Bill became President, (one of the reasons the Right wing smear machine has always hated her, she genuinely is accomplished and experienced).
Laura lived like the wife of a very rich man while her drunk husband failed at one job after another.
Like it or not, whether she used political connections or not, HIllary was elected to the Senate.
Laura wrote a really lame book about Barney & Miss Beasley. Actually, she ghost wrote it, someone else really wrote it, just like her speeches.
And finally, maybe it wasn't a great plan, but HIllary really tried to do something about health care for this country. In return, the Right - protecting their Corporate masters - tried to destroy her completely. They relentlessly attacked her; personally, professionally, sexually. They attacked her child. They even accused her of murder.
Laura lives the life of a very rich priveledged woman, and does nothing for "the little people".
There is no comparison between the two.
hey laura, how did your husband learn about the storm in new orleans? with less than a year to go, why does she have to speak up at all. have the stepford wife drugs worn off? is she setting herself up for a run for office?
please sit down and shut up. you are now helping anything.
In plain and simple terms........f--k you Laura and the stupid asshole you are married to.
Whoof. I had to turn it off. I can't listen to inane babbling.
fiver @ 89:
Certainly no one is qualified to do anything by virtue of being First Lady/Man, but the status hardly disqualifies an intelligent one from contributing to public life.
She should just keep in stepford trap shut. The whole Bush family has been a detriment to this country and the world.
Fuck impeachment.
EXILE THE BUSHES
casper46 @ 79:
Not nearly good enough for me.
Karen @ 108:
Of course not. But Ladybird Johnson encouraging people to plant flowers is one thing, GWB having Laura comment on foreign policy or Bill giving Hillary national healthcare to cut her teeth on are completely different animals.
She's just following in her mother-in-laws footsteps. Remember Babs 'charity' after Katrina went to her son Neals shady education company!
Wow-- that's some biting criticism from saviors of Korrina.
Laura and George were made for each other...
This useless smiling bimbo didn't even know the name Katrina as in hurricane Katrina , she called it Careena , I doubt this woman has ever even wiped her own ass . Suddenly she and the village idiot husband of hers care about people ? Gimme an F'n break ! It is written in stone now George , your legacy is going to be that you were the vacation King and biggest disaster this country has ever known and your wife as first lady was as useless as tits on a boar and did exactly zero .
pissed off patricia @ 15:
Do you remember when Rudi Giuliani threw the $10 000 000 aid check to New York back in that Saudi prince's face because he suggested that the 9/11 attacks were a result of American foreign policy in the middle east? Well maybe Laura is hoping the same thing will happen here, and the U.S. can save a few bucks when Burma refuses to accept our aid?
Ray @ 115:
Hey, give her some credit! Don't you remember when she went to the middle east in 2005 to settle the Palestinian/Israeli conflict? She told jokes about her mother in law, and it stopped the Israelis and the Palestinians from fighting, and allowed them to sign a peace accord. Unless, of course, it didn't.
Talk about an "elitist bitch". Nice going. Who is this wench anyway? She seems to have really "polished" her speaking skills. Shameful.
This is what this f*cking administration is all about. Trying to raise their shit heads higher by stepping on others when they are down.
Pathetic bitch. Pathetic administration. Get a rope!!

My favoritest line:
“I’m going to leave tomorrow for Crawford, for Jenna’s wedding, and I wanted to be able to make a statement about Burma before I left.”
More people should have random urges to criticize governments before flying off to completely unrelated events. Maybe I should call a press release to slam Micronesia before I go to work tomorrow.

spot on. you couldn't let them know that though, it's not their responsibility.
grats to jenna on her upcoming nuptuals
BUT WHY ISNT THE FUCKING WINGNUT SHE IS GETTING HITCHED TO ON THE FRONT LINES IN HIS FATHER IN LAWS FUCKING WAR????????
For so called christians, this backbiting is really going overboard. Can't we mind our own business and pray for those that are less fortunate than us, or those that are our enemies. Love is a wonderful principle if it would ever be practice. Some on this site could use some help in this area as well. I pray for you all, good and bad. I love you all good and bad. I may not support your decisions, and if you get on my bad side, I may then have to resort to praying more. Watch out, and god bless.

Laura just like W lives in a total fantasy world and has no idea of how to act in any situation. You can expect she would have no idea how to act given this tragic situation with so many fellow humans dying and hurting. Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld/Rice have been a plague on the world.
Dear First Lady,
Can you please remind me who managed the situation competently before and after the hurricane Katrina ? Have you heard the saying,"Those who live in glass houses should not be throwing stones at others?"

It doesn't suprise me. I moved to New Zealand. There had been a change with us embassadors. The first sentence that came out of the new embassador's mouth was that New Zealand should support Bush and the Iraq war and should have invaded Iraq along with England. The country came down on him hard. He was an embarrassement He said he was misquoted. This guy has absolutely no tact. Oh, and his credentials for being embassador was owning a chain of sea restaurants. He is doing a heck of a job.
Why is it that everyone connected to Dubya can't open their mouths without sewage gushing out?

perhaps, but bankrupt them first!
Karen said it best. Laura, STFU! You kept your mouth shut when Skippy screwed up in New Orleans, and now you have the gall to criticize someone else for the same thing. The Bushies have no shame (and lack common sense). When will this country finally get rid of these Republican crooks, liars, incompetents etc?
Laura talks about human rights abuses by the Myanmar regime, but what about her own husband's regime? Laura, have you ever heard about Guantanamo or Abu Ghraib?
Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
After all Laura isn't very bright marrying a uneducated, monkey and complete buffoon and then bear his spawn of drunken, wild kids.
I can't wait to see the photos from that
Shotgun Hillbilly Wedding in Crawford!
Ya know weird things are going to happen.
Anybody got a list of the Guests?
I hope Monkey Man gets drunk, and does something Stupid!
God Bless Us Rich People!
Remember, Bush turned away Cuba's offer to help us after Katrina!
