1. Why, Lynne, are you saying the American Revolution was a mistake?
So many fine modern American patriots just clamoring to get the monarchy back?

4. Oh boy, they are just really really full of themselves...
Laura Bush is so unqualified that if they actually think they're serious they're more nutso than I thought.

Really, a ultra-wealthy ex-debutant turned homemaker with an honorary (husband-finding) degree?

5. I think Mrs. Bush ought to run for president ...
Edited on Fri Jan-27-06 07:15 PM by NanceGreggs
... well, SO DO I! Bring that on, Repubs!

I guess Dick and Lynne are forgetting that the image they've promoted of Laura Bush for the last five years has been one of a quiet, unassuming housewife who doesn't 'worry her mind' about politics, international affairs, etc. She stays home and bakes cookies for Georgie and the girls.

Do they honestly think the grass-roots constituents they've fired up for five years -- you know, the hawks, the war-mongers, the members of the He-Man-Woman-Haters-Club, are going to lie down for a HOUSEWIFE running the country, the war in Iraq, and so on?

The Neo-Cons have had it. Their only chance of holding on to any kind of political power is to put another Bush puppet in the White House. I guess the recent surveys they've conducted on Jeb didn't turn out too well, eh?

The name 'BUSH', for the VAST MAJORITY of middle-class Americans is now synonymous with sky-high deficits, job losses, medical coverage losses, doubled and tripled home heating costs and the price of gas at the pump ... the list goes on and on.

If they're honestly even thinking about running Laura, it's a sure sign that they are TRULY DESPERATE!

Edited to add: If Laura really ran, can you imagine what the tabloids would do with their photos of Barbie & Jenna? The prices for these 'inconvenient' photos and stories would be worth a fortune -- spread out (you should pardon the pun) on the front page of every tabloid, for all the world to see what a GREAT JOB Laura has done with her own Family-Values-Christian children!

Sisters - A Book By Lynne Cheney

If you look around hard enough on the Web you find some humorous stuff. Everyone knows that our Vice President, Dick Cheney, has a lesbian daughter, Mary, about whom he rarely speaks openly even though the poor girl has to work for his re-election committee. But did you know that Dick’s wife Lynne, wrote a sizzling western novel called "Sisters" which is filled with hot, steamy stuff like lesbian love, prostitution and rape, and supports a sweeping pro-feminist agenda?

***
Some excerpts:

The women who embraced in the wagon were Adam and Eve crossing a dark cathedral stage -- no, Eve and Eve, loving one another as they would not be able to once they ate of the fruit and knew themselves as they truly were. She felt curiously moved, curiously envious of them. She had never to this moment thought Eden a particularly attractive paradise, based as it was on naiveté, but she saw that the women in the cart had a passionate, loving intimacy forever closed to her. How strong it made them. What comfort it gave.

The young woman was heavily powdered, but quite attractive, a curvesome creature, rounded at bosom and cheek. When she smiled, even her teeth seemed puffed and rounded, like tiny ivory pillows.

Let us go away together, away from the anger and imperatives of men. We shall find ourselves a secluded bower where they dare not venture. There will be only the two of us, and we shall linger through long afternoons of sweet retirement. In the evenings I shall read to you while you work your cross-stitch in the firelight. And then we shall go to bed, our bed, my dearest girl.

He should know, since he gets to count the votes.

13. Makes about as much sense as
Harriet Myers on the Supreme Court. At least Harriet Myers had some legal experience.

Laura knows nothing about anything in the government. Neither did her husband for that matter and look where it got us.
