BFEE's nickname for old Barbara BUSH: "Barsil"
For that estimably charitable donor to her son's and her own company.


from Kitty KELLEY's "The Family", pp 72-3: "The rigorous prohibition on the sale of gasoline and tires forced the Walkers and Bushes to stop driving at Kennebunkport and resort to a horse-drawn wagon. The beast of burden was named Barsil. Prescott junior joked about seeing a strong resemblance between the heavy dray horse and George's girlfriend, so he called both Bar. After the horse died, the nickname stuck to the girlfriend."




Now, the last time I said something nasty about Nancy RAYGUN I was rebuked by 100% of the posters for being mean to "a former First Lady" who "took care of her sick husband" and who "behaved well at the funeral." Nevermind that if she could be transported to being younger again she would resume her evil ways. I *do* credit her for resisting the wingnuts who want to replace FDR with RAYGUN on the dime.

This time, I rebuke myself for spreading the defamation of the poor horse.

4. She certainly loves the homeless and destitute.
Remember, when visiting the Astrodome:



"Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality.
And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway,
so this, this is working very well for them."



Must be where Smirko picked up his respect and love for the poor.

7. Barbara Bush attracts trouble...
like a pile of shit attracts flies. The old lady is controversial, there's no doubt about it.

and the worst part of it is, she probably doesn't understand why people get upset. She makes what she believes are accurate, truthful statements: "these people are underprivileged". Well, it's the truth, isn't it? she asks. "And plus, I went down there to see them, wish them well".

She feels she's actually a do-gooder. I've read articles about how she goes and visits hospitals, orphanages and other places. She often puts her foot in her mouth, and people get furious as a result.

She's just clueless.
