PHOTOS: Happy 60th Anniversary Babs and Poppy!!
Edited on Thu Jan-06-05 10:39 PM by Bluebear
A GREAT couple! Larry King said so tonight! 9 more U.S. soldiers die today, the world is awash in death and tragedy and Poppy and Babs party on at the White House tonight, not letting a damn thing bother their beautiful minds! PARTY ON!





President George W. Bush, Laura Bush, former First Lady Barbara Bush, and former President George H.W. Bush sit surrounded by family in the Red Room, January 6, 2005. Friends and family joined former President Bush and Mrs. Bush in celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary during a dinner held at the White House. Also pictured are, from left, Georgia Grace Koch, Margaret Bush, Walker Bush, Marvin Bush, Jenna Bush, Doro Koch, Barbara Bush, Robert P. Koch, Pierce M. Bush, Maria Bush, Neil Bush, Ashley Bush, Sam LeBlond, Robert Koch, Nancy Ellis LeBlond, John Ellis Bush, Jr., Florida Gov. John Ellis 'Jeb' Bush, Mandi Bush, George P. Bush, and Columba Bush.

1. ....
May they both live to be 103 and have itchy rashes over all their body every day for the rest of their life.

May they have nightmares of blood and death and destruction, brought on by their son, every single night and may they haunt them during the day.

28. Royalty all right. Babs always looks like a lizard who has just
swallowed something she really likes. I first noticed that smug satisfactionon its face on election night 2000. Anybody here ever read David Ickes' book about secrets of the powerful, and the fact, if you will, that the Queen Elizabeth crowd are actually of a race of lizard people, who remain cloaked most of the time? It's quite interesting while outrageous.

50. If you think the boots are bad, Nixon had "the Palace Guard,"
in the White House, and they all wore fancy uniforms with epaulets and crap.

6. ack! bush SPAWN... follow the dancing ball.....


THE SPAWN OF BARBARA
(To the tune of “This Joint Is Jumping”)


THEY PLAN GLOBAL EXPANSION
BUT IN A FAMILY WAY
THEY’RE CHUMMY WITH THE SAUDIS
AND PALS OF KENNY LAY
TO SAY THAT THEY ARE SHADY
UNDERSTATES THE CASE
THIS DYNASTY IS SO NASTY
THEY’RE A NATIONAL DISGRACE!
(“You’ve been warned!”)

THE SPAWN OF BARBARA!
SHOULD TERRIFY YA
MARVIN, JEB AND NEIL AND GEORGE
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

THEY’RE CORPORATE CROOKS, WHO
ALL COOK THE BOOKS, TOO
POPPY’S BROOD
IS MORE THAN RUDE
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

THEIR COMPASSION IS A POSE
AND THEY DON’T CARE WHAT YOU THINK
SCRATCH ANY SCANDAL AND YOUR NOSE
WILL GET A WHIFF OF BUSH-STINK

FROM JEB’S DECEPTION
IN THAT ELECTION
MARVIN’S SCORES
AND NEIL’S WHORES
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

THE SPAWN OF BARBARA!
SHOULD TERRIFY YA
HER FIRST BORN DESERVES THE SCORN
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

EACH GENERATION...
DEGENERATION
BOOZE AND PILLS,
THEY FLAUNT THEIR ILLS
THIS IS ONE GRAND ‘MUTHA’

PRESCOTT’S EVIL NAZI TIES
WERE ONLY THE BEGINNING
PEOPLE DIE WHEN DUB’YA LIES--
OH, LOOK! GEORGE ORWELL’S SPINNING!

THEIR THIRST FOR POWER
GROWS EVERY HOUR
MARVIN, JEB AND NEIL AND GEORGE
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

32. Don't forget future first lady Columba Bush.
Tried to declare $500 worth of goods at customs when she had $19,000 worth of clothing and jewelry with her. Fined after given 2 chances (which she didn't use) to amend her declaration.

And Laura's an "honorary" for that incident with her car ... no charges, records blurry, but, you know ...

21. NO, but Pickles has her Bush shaved into the Presidential seal
And she hums "Heil the the Chief" when Bush breaks the seal.

(that's not a typo)

24. Actually, I don't know why, but I saw
"Bush boots" in my Avant Google window and hit 'go' again, and found this

This is pre-selection - he's get his initials and the Texas flag on this pair.

The dude thinks he fucking walks the Earth above men, and that really pisses me off - only 'cuz I'M the ONE!!

39. No boots with black tie....
Look, I live in Texas. I've seen many a sight that would make the fashion police go pale. But the Bush family never gets it right.

Among the older generation, there was a look of well-tailored subtly western suits with discreet dark boots--with an LBJ-style pearl gray Stetson for outdoors. This was for business wear. When the old dudes were dragged to a formal event, they wore black tie as dictated by their wives. And the wives would be dressed by the finest of designers--not Acme Slipcovers.

There is a Dress Western look, seen for Livestock Show fundraisers & other events. Perhaps a bit gaudy by Northeastern standards, but colorful & funky. Endangered species boots? Buckskin? Lots of turquoise? Yes, to all of those. But those who dress like that actually enjoy the Western life. Someone else may run their ranches, but they actually know how to ride. They do more on their weekends than get sozzled. (Not to say that some of them don't get sozzled.)

But Bushie doesn't have the nerve to go full-drag cowboy. So we're subjected to fashion atrocities such as this.

She has been a "part" of that family (or at least was) as long as many in that photo.

BTW- Sorry I didn't see this thread (and I did look) when I started my thread. :spank:

44. No, I'm pretty sure she died
But it would be interesting if she passed along her memories to anybody - it's history, right? Mistress of a President. I wouldn't be surprised if she put something down on the page for posterity, to be revealed upon the deaths of Babs and Poppy.
