“I married well and I birthed well…" Barbara Bush interview
(snip)

“I took one sock and lived to regret it.” Barbara Bush said of her infamous jab on Jay Leno. “I just said they were sort of a sorry lot and you'd have thought I called them something terrible.”

Never short on opinions...

“I didn't care for him very much. They deserved each other,” she's talking about members of the media who will remain nameless.

When asked if speaking her mind is a blessing or a curse she said, “It's a curse. Terrible curse. Yes terrible. And I don't think I speak my mind then someone says, ‘Well, I can't believe you'd say that.’ I try not to. You ought to hear what I'm thinking!”

(snip)

So does Barbara Bush think her son took the country to war to go after Sadam Hussein because he attempted to assassinate her husband?

“No. I don't think that had anything to do with that at all. Absolutely none. But there are people that are going to believe that, but it wasn't true,” said Bush.

(snip)

What is Babrbar Bush’s proudest moment of her son as president?

“That's a good question, she said. “I was very moved at the Ground Zero. I also thought the baseball throw was wonderful. We watched George walk out on that field and it was very moving to me because there was a huge standing ovation - just really cheering and New York needed that. And then he threw a pitch. It was a perfect pitch, slow but a perfect pitch. My George was beside himself the next morning. I heard him, “I can't believe the New York Times they said ‘alleged’ perfect pitch! Alleged strike! It was a strike! I thought that was so funny. It shows you never really grow up.”

9. You mean this barbara bush
snip...

On March 18, two days before the U.S. invasion, Barbara Bush had an interview with ABC-TV's Diane Sawyer.

''Why should we hear about body bags and deaths and how many, what day it's gonna happen?'' Mrs. Bush declared. ''It's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?''

link: http://www.commondreams.org/views03/0905-04.htm

Hey babs, "beautiful minds" is subjective.

She is disgusting just like the sons she raised.

52. Hey!
That's an insult to witches.

Warlock, however, was an accurate use of the term. Contrary to popular belief, it does not refer to a male witch. Rather, it means "oath-breaker." I'd say she's spawned quite a few of those.

...family life. After JK's inauguration it should be made official. "BUSH CRIME FAMILY" is the official designation.

...no earthquakes tonight, eh? I lived in Santa Cruz during the summer of '70. I worked down on the boardwalk putting kids on and off a ride. Lived, pretty much, in a shack on the beach with a buncha surfers. Pleasant memories.

14. That's the aristocracy for you
According to Kevin Phillip's "American Dynasty", the Bush*'s make a big deal about their distant relationship to the UK's royal family by way of his great-granfather, Herbert Walker. Aristocrats are big on thier bloodlines.

36. Missy? I thought Poppy's long-time amour

was called Jennifer. . . Was there another one? Supposedly, when he was ambassador to China, Bar came home early when she found out about the Jennifer affair. Another time, he took the mistress somewhere in Europe, upsetting his hosts, who expected him to be alone or bring the wife. Probably, she was nicer than Bar. (Nixon said no one hated like Barbara Bush hated, as if it were a real talent. And if Nixon said it. . .)

When Linda Tripp worked in Poppy's White House, she got in trouble for talking about the Poppy--Jennifer affair. The woman never learns, I guess. She and Bar would be good companions for each other.

For Pete's sake, she claims that she was proudest of the pitch he delivered at Yankee Stadium. What more could she say?

On edit substituted "accuracy" for "honety."

59. babs is the 3rd and final anti-christ according to nostradamus
Nostradamus names the 3rd and final anti-christ as MABUS. Until recently many took that to be a code word when read backward, SUBAM, that was really meant to reveal SADDAM. Now we know better. The code is not to read it backwards, but to break it down thusly.

MABUS

MA BUS

Ma Bus

Now slur the s to give an sh sound and you get

Ma Bush! - Babs Bush! The 3rd and final anti-christ! Which goes a long way to explain her souless progeny.
