Oh wow, we pick on Barbara because she is old and not attractive. Totally great reasons not to like someone!

Barbara was not one who wanted to be in the spotlight like the media whore Hillary was with her time in office. The Bush women seem to be more about doing things on a more downplayed mode than annoucning everytime they hold some type of meeting.

She has a wicked sense of humor and a sharp tongue, she says things that others look at and say ...what a [!@#$%^&*], but thats just her. She holds nothing back. Kind of refreshing, even when some comments are not proper.

A strong advocate of volunteerism, Mrs. Bush helped many causes--including the homeless, AIDS, the elderly, and school volunteer programs. As well as literacy issues. And founded the Barbara Bush Foundation of for Family Literacy. I guess it is wrong to want to teach people to read?

Yea, she is horrible alright. And Laura does so much to promote education and reading.

You see, these ladies were not trying to advance themselves, they were trying to advance others. So that does make them horrible rotten people!

Geez...things never cease to amaze me.

All first ladies have been, in my opinion pretty damn good in terms or how they handled themselves, the pressures and were good role models to children and women especially.

Yes, even the Democrats!

Imagine if Kerrys wife was first lady...she was the younger version of Barbara Bush in the mouthing off department, but because she is a DEM...she would have had a free pass! :lol:

No Kwing, Barbara Bush is a total B I T C H. She's ugly and old----looks like she's 130, but oh well, Maybe that's God's punishment. Laura Bush doesn't do a DAMNED thing, she's almost invisible, except when she wants to kiss W's ass and lie.

Kerry's wife was beaten up in the press, so Kwing you and the other neo-cons can stop the "liberal media" lies.

Some quick phrases that sum up my feelings on this post.

-Misrepresentation of the words of others.

-An obvious belief that everything uttered by the media is fact.

-Unnecessary defensiveness about Conservative figures. (which only makes people further dislike them!)

-An inability to agree to disagree with others.

All typically Republican and speaks volumes about why Democrats and independents are put-off by the party.

Where are you getting this idea that Dems get a free pass? I don't give one to Hillary and Dianne Feinstein for voting for the Iraq War but at least they have come out and protested it and neither do I give them one along with Boxer and a whole bunch of others for voting to re-extend The Patriot Act.....I still like them a lot but there are times where I have to disagree with their decisions

    • I don't think so, but I wouldn't be surprised if he was Dumas this whole time.
    • Tamara Tunie was serving up grand dame diva fierceness.
    • Nick told Victoria that he and Sharon had married in England.  Victoria was shocked.  Then she realized he was kidding.  He confirmed it was a joke and they're platonic. I don't even know what to say about that.
    • It's funny you say that because part of the entertainment of the trials on the show are all the day players who come on as witnesses and jurors.  I'm certain it was like the Law and Order of its time. It employed so many New York actors, that if you look close enough, there's usually someone vaguely recognizable in the courtroom.
    • I will defend Dante.  People already suspect he may be a bit unstable from time to time (from his time as a prisoner).  And, he's taking care of other people's kids from time to time.  So, he has reason to be cautious with those in his care.
    • Josh continues to try and milk Abbott/Newman rivalry. First it was Billy/Victoria, then Kyle/Summer, then Noah/Allie (that worked out well) and now Kyle/Claire. Do we have any inkling when Billy Flynn will arrive and who he will play? I'm sure Cole's illness will mostly play offscreen. What's in store for Nick and Sharon? Is it time to put them back together? I can't see any other romantic options. Nick has no children on the canvas to play off, as Christian is never seen. Sharon has only Mariah onscreen.
    • I would appreciate (if they're not coming), for future scripts to refer to them by their iconic hairdos.  For example, if Hope needs to call Chelsea because Bo has Sepsis, I'd like Shawn-D to say, "My Mom called Chelsea (the one with the sassy short black hair) for an update." Also, new rule, if Melanie does return, she needs to dye her hair back to red.  I googled who she was five times during Victor's funeral.

    • Broderick, thank you for all of the info [I edited for space]. I am so grateful for everyone filling in the blanks for me. I suspected the Nora/Eliot scene was very important and it was setting something up but I didn't know what. Can't wait to see it play out. The two actors had such a great back and forth. I should have made the Paige/Patty Hearst connection. I thought Paige was in love with Brian from the first episode I watched but it seemed as if they were brother and sister. Steve kept being affectionate with her so I assumed he was the love interest. Then she was affectionate with someone else and well..she's a very busy woman. I can't wait to see Frances Fisher show up. (I'm trying to be vague because I don't know what would be a spoiler in this storyline) Now it makes sense why Draper would be upset. I didn't get the whole background of why he didn't go to NY. I'm a sucker for good acting, so I might still side with April and Margo, if the writers don't give Draper more to do besides yelling.  He had more chemistry with Logan, but I know that's not happening.  Something else I noticed: the show really takes care with even the smallest parts. The acting is superb. Too often, I noticed on older soaps they don't take care with the recurring or day players (Ryan's Hope was so bad with this that I couldn't make it through some episodes). It's only been six episodes, but so far, the casting department was spot on.
    • I thought Dante was overreacting.  Gio made some mistakes but he's young and he tried.  It's not like he dragged two 14 years to a party and made them get blackout drunk.  Dante can have the initial upset reaction, but to go on and on was a bit much.  
    • His (adoptive) nieces.  Chelsea and Stephanie.  I think Abby was involved too, but I am not sure if they are related lol.
