Laura Bush stole my great-grandma's couch cover. . .

[NicoleM]

and wore it to the NATO summit:

[sleepyhead]

1. Looks like she also doubled up on her meds. n/t

[Lars39]

2. Is she still using Babs' clothing designer?

Or did Laura just borrow something from her MIL? That dress is awful.

[trumad]

3. Actually they were curtains

[Kukesa]

9. What? She thinks she's Scarlett O'Hara? n/t

[tishaLA]

14. "I saw 'em in the window and

I just HAD to have 'em!"

[Cleita]

4. Looks like my mother's bedroom curtains.

eom

[Wind Dancer]

5. Can anybody say Stepford Wife?

That is simply scary!!!!!!!!!

[merh]

6. Its a hand me down from Babs. Watch, pretty soon she will start morphing

and her hair will turn white and they will present her to the world looking more and more like Babs. The stepford wives, bush style.

[blueblitzkrieg]

7. She looks like a robot

a robot in an ugly dress.

[lapfog_1]

8. Two points

One. Notice that they are waving as if to a crowd of well wishers?
Bet you $50 that there isn't a single person waving or cheering for
them in THIS setting. I imagine that there simply isn't anyone there
except for handlers, newsies and secret service.

Two. So MANY RW women (the wives) look all stepford or something. It's
weird, something about the eyes, kinda a crazed look, no soul inside,
or maybe the eyes don't match the face smiling. I don't know, but it's
weird. And so MANY of them have this.

[NicoleM]

18. It's the Xanax.

[SharonAnn]

21. Her eyes have had plastic surgery. There's a certain "lift" to them.

And itmakes them a little smaller, sometimes. Depends a great deal on the surgeon.

[senseandsensibility]

10. OK, I 'm probably just weird

but I like the dress, especially the color. I agree with the eye thing though.

[qanda]

29. In a strange way, I agree with you

I like the concept of the dress, the color and the material. However, she seems to know how to mess up a good concept. I think it's the way the dress hangs on her and also whatever she has around her neck throws the whole look off.

[acmavm]

11. She looks like 'Chucky' in drag.

.

[NightOwwl]

12. How come Rush

never comments on Laura's physical appearance? He used to love to talk about Hillary's piano legs all the time. I'm sure he could think of a clever name for that thick waist of hers.

The hand curling into a claw combined with the dead-eyed smile makes her look like a Stepford wife coming in for the kill.

[alvis]

22. Well Rush is going to be single soon... nt

[Gildor Inglorion]

13. Dear Lord...I haven't seen a First Lady* look that stoned...

since Betty Ford narrated "The Nutcracker" from the USSR. Maybe a trip to the Clinic is in the offing.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. Betty Ford Was Cool

She was pro ERA, pro-choice, and totally comfortable with the idea that two people who were in love didn't need a marriage certificate to make love...


Don't compare her with the Laura Stepford Bush...

[mellowinman]

16. Make her give it back!

That's low; stealing from old people.

Oh wait, she's a BUSH.

[Malva Zebrina]

17. eeek==my eyes, my eyes Stepford gal personified

Staring at something that no one else is. What is that thing around her neck? It looks like some Christmas tree lights that she might have decided looked creative with this horrendous, cheap looking outfit. She really needs to do something about that sagging boobline as it sinks lower and lower into her waistline. There are things that would make for a more pleasing line like a good , uplifting undergarment. Even us little poor people know of those things.

This pathetic couple definately looks like they are not confident in their skin. His tie is crooked, he looks scared and she is gripping his arm as if to say, in desperation, "protect me" His cocky smirk is his usual coverup for his inability to connect to any foreign member due to his lack of intelligence and his lack of class and panache.

[NightOwwl]

19. Hee...

Stepford wife is a popular theme around here. :toast:

[Bluebear]

20. Butterick or Simplicity?

[Hepburn]

26. Salvation Army IMO

Used Mother of the Bride dresses from the 60's rack.

[bluedeminredstate]

23. I think

it's more bathroom mat-style. Just envision a little acrylic pile and you've got a bath mat and a toilet cover. It's also the perfect color for cheap bathroom rugs.
:hurts:

I agree totally with the eye comments. It's freaky, no doubt.

[testing123]

24. She has crazy eyes

Is that the look on her face that she had when she hit her ex boyfriend and killed him.

[Hepburn]

25. Holy Shit!

I have NOT seen anything that bad since a Mother of the Bride outfit in a wedding in the 60's! Geeeeeeeeez: She just manages to NEVER look pulled together and she manages to always look like she is in a time warp. Dorothy Hamill hair and a Gabor sisters dress! Talk about having NO style. Wow! That dress is AWFUL!! :puke:

[PfcHammer]

27. That dress would make an outstanding scratching post for the cats

[progressivebydesign]

28. Not to be mean.. but WHY does she always look crazed or robotic?

The dress.. I believe.. is early Imelda Marcos. That is a darn ugly peacock frock. Ugh.

[americanwomanone]

30. The poor woman always looks that way.

I would look dazed and confused if I had to be around the emperor too. She can't possibly have an intelligent conversation with him.
