Now She Tells Us



There was always something seriously 'off' about Laura Bush, wasn't there?

Well, for starters, anybody who married that evil buffoon would have something off about her.

But she also often had a glassy look about her. An air of not quite being there. Or maybe wanting to be somewhere else. Drugs? we wondered.

And who the hell would blame her?

But it turns out even weirder -- she supports legal abortion and equal marriage! She's a crypto-feminist!

She's written a book -- for a ginormous sum of money -- and she's plugging it. Last week she was on Larry King.
KING: . . Gay marriage, you tell us in the book that during the 2004 campaign you talked to George about not making it a significant issue. Do you think we should have it?

BUSH: Well, I think we ought to definitely look at it and debate it. I think there are a lot of people who have trouble coming to terms with that because they see marriage as traditionally between a man and a woman. But I also know that, you know, when couples are committed to each other and love each other, that they ought to have I think the same sort of rights that everyone has.

KING: So would that be an area where you disagreed?

BUSH: I guess that would be an area that we disagree. I mean, I understand totally what George thinks and what other people think about marriage being between a man and a woman. And it's a real, you know, reversal really for that to accept gay marriage.

KING: But you do?

BUSH: But I think we could, yeah. I think it's also a generational thing.

KING: You think it's coming?

BUSH: Yeah, that will come, I think.

KING: How about choice?

BUSH: That was the -- I write in the book about the very first question I got on the morning of George's inauguration, from Katie Couric, who asked me two questions about abortion. That was the social issue in 2000 that everyone got asked about. And then I think gay marriage was the social issue in 2004. And I was say probably in the more recent election as well.

She asked me if -- she asked two questions about abortion, and then she asked me if I was for the overturn of Roe versus Wade. And sort of everything went through my mind. This was the very morning my husband was about to be inaugurated. And I thought, do I really want to start my husband's presidency, you know, suggesting that a Supreme Court rule being overturned. And I said no.

And I think it's important that it remain legal, because I think it's important for people, for medical reasons and other reasons.

KING: So you -- that would be two areas of disagreement.

BUSH: Uh-huh.

She was biting her tongue so hard the whole time that she must have just spazzed out.

Other interviews reveal that she's in favour of more women on the Supreme Court and doesn't like the totalitarian new 'papers please' law in Arizona.

My, my. What if Bush's rabid TheoCon followers had known there was an Enemy sleeping with their guy? A feminazi -- well, in their terms -- behind the throne? A supporter of the Gay Agenda with very close access to the Homophobe-in-Chief?

I betcha Bush's primary adversaries are gnashing their teeth over the lost opportunity.

She's psychic! She was STFUing long before Senator Ruth let us in on the secret of how to be a good con supporter!

Indeedy-doody, that is a spooky photo - amazing.

I wonder whether Laura B. vetted her 'coming out' with George before the interview.

"Wait 'till after the White House - then you can say whatever you want - just 'Shut the f**k up' for now". 'May NOT' seems to be the theme this May.

I wonder what's under Mrs. Harper's bonnet.
