Barbara Bush Blunders

[PanzerJaeger]

A pathetic excuse to use for their being entirely ungentlemanly. I'm not taling about valid political comments, I'm referring to their trash talk. Wasn't just co-workers, it was pervasive. Folks like you and Gawain would be the first I would expect to hear the comments from.

Hehe, feel free to indulge your preconcieved notions about me, Im used to it.

I have more respect for Hillary, far more, than for either of the Bush wives. Why? She takes a lot of abuse, but she makes a difference and in a good way.

Name something good Hillary has done.

I have less respect (but some pity) for women who have little impact on their husbands' views. Barbara to her credit had some differences with George, Sr. during his term. Laura on the other hand...I watched an interview with her that revealed she had no real contribution at all. That seems to be what GOP voters like, but I consider the "barefoot and pregnant" crowd a bunch of dinosaurs who shouldn't have positions in which they are allowed to manage any women in the workplace.

Yea you know its a funny thing with us dinosaurs. We like the person we voted for to be making policy decisions, not the person's spouse.

I do admire your ability to take a seemingly minute example and form an entire diatribe against a huge group of people. Youve mastered it far beyond I could ever hope to.

For example, you take the fact that the president's wife doesnt get involved in trying to influence him politically and twist it into an assumption that people who vote GOP enjoy keeping women barefoot and pregnant. Further, you have decided that GOP voters shouldnt be allowed to manage women in the workplace. So in essense, youve turned Laura Bush's decision to stay out of politics into the fact that conservatives dont respect women.

Really, Goebbels would love it, and thats no insult. An impressive technique indeed.

The misearable bitch should be hung by her thumbnails and given repeated enemas with the outflow from one of the levee pumps. There... you Bush-whackers feel better?

Fohken-Eh, let it go. She was trying to be gracious in a difficult situation (for the record, she failed, true, but as somebody who's had awkward moments themselves, let me say: BFD) What she saw probably threw her back a turn or two. Imagine that. Apocalyptic horror threw her off balance. And for those of you who sit here and pronounce your judgement on her, I suppose you're only taking a break between helping the hurricane victims yourselves? Glad to see dying children and a disaster of biblical proportions didn't even raise an eyebrow on your cynical selves. What's that you say, you haven't been down there and seen the horror in person yourself??? Wait, what's that word I'm looking for.... could it be HYPOCRITE!!!

Khafir, my hat's off to you. When I've misjudged somebody, I'm the first to admit it. I'm going to have to start reading what your posts again... damn... just when I was cutting back on my .ORG time.
