1. No, and if I'd been on the fence, that picture would have changed my mind
honestly. Has she no shame? It's like she's a babysitter telling stories on a kid who's hard to take care of.

5. Just copycatting the Today poll
Nah, I don't care if he's married to a stallion.

3. Other than referring to her as "Pickles," as is the DU custom
I don't take any real shots at her. I figure, let stop signs be stop signs. I mean, um, bygones.

4. I voted yes because she's an OK person. Sure better than ehr husband!
I can't say she's even close to the best first lady I've known, but she's OK.

15. I heard she killed her high school boyfriend
with her car, and she sold dope too. She fits right in with the "right"

I get the feeling she'd rather be doing something else.
Maybe a pitcher of gin martinis for lunch and a long nap after.

12. A drink, a smoke, and a good book
I'm with you. She IS good for one thing, though. She is a harbinger of things to come, and the state of the administration. When all is well, she gets to do her thing. When things get iffy for this regime, they put a gun to her head and trot her out to speechify or go on a world tour....to "soften" the image of Mr. Softyhead.

She's gotta be in a hellish scenario. And what is she doing with that pretzel--stuffing it down someone's throat?? (Shhhhh, Barney, don't bark now!).

7. I said no because Theresa or Judy should be FL.... if the neocon
deathcult christofascist republicans hadn't manipulated the media and stolen the election.

8. That evil witch discouraged stem cell research "cuz any
benefit would be years away" so I guess no need to start now, just let them suffer and die. Guess it's just god's will.

9. As a person or first lady.
I don't think she is a legitimate first lady, not because of her doings but bushco. As a person, she seems like someone that was hired to be a stepford wife that might be getting tired of it now.

10. I couldn't in good conscience remain married to a man
Who is responsible for the deaths of thousands of people in an illegal war. Or who steals elections that he cannot win fairly. Or who is against the protecting the environment and healthcare for poor kids.

I stopped dating a guy once because I found out he refused to pay his child support. So you'd just be calling me the ex-Mrs. Cuckoobananas right now if I were Laura Bush.

11. No, her massive intake of Xanax is driving up the price and making it
too expensive for me. Don't bogart the Xanax, Pickles.

14. A neutrino.
She'll pass through without changing anything. She's a vacuous, flat-lined zombie ... a snore. She's as "unoffensive" as a corpse before it rots. I can only think a guy with the most massive absence of self-esteem would marry someone like her. Oh! Wait. He did.

16. When "Hell Freezes Over."
Imagine if former First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, now Senator Clinton had been involved in a "very questionable" car accident that led to the death of a documented, possible "date/boyfriend," under very questionable circumstances.

O.M.G. One can only imagine.

21. even if I knew absolutely nothing else about her
knowing that she has been married to Bush for so long, being there to support his evil, makes me hate her.

22. No, because she's dipshit's other half.
That alone is enough to make her a bad match for the job of First Lady.

23. did she protest the war?
She knew as much as king cuckoobananas that the war was based on lies. Did she try to stop it? No? Then she is a murdererer and torturer. The first mother of our country sent our kids to die for nothing. The madonna of the most powerful nation on earth slept soundly while we unleashed hell upon thousands of innocent children in Iraq.
She has much in common it seems with Elena Ceausescu. May she rot in hell along with her.
