Where is Laura Bush?
Remember how after 9/11, she was called the "Comforter-in-Chief." And the media gave her all this praise for trying to encourage parents to reassure their children they were safe?

Well, where is she now, during one of the most horrific natural disasters on our homeland?

4. And telling all the displaced parents to enroll their children in school
to get their lives back to normal asap. Except the Sec. of Education said we don't have space in the schools to accommodate all of these children. Now what?

15. Who the fuck cares....
Pump the inane Stepford Wife up with her daily dose of Valium, stick her in the WH somewhere. Maybe she could invite Babs over for tea and they could take turns keeping the images of body bags out of their beautiful minds.

16. Last I saw her....
she was touring a really nice and clean shelter that had food, water, medical care and plenty of everything else.

I would pay to see her or shrub go tour one of those who have nothing.

Evacuees at Cajundome wait for first lady, and for lunch

# Complete Local Coverage

As the first lady toured the Red Cross shelter at the Cajundome this morning, a line of evacuees waiting to eat their lunch trickled out the door of the Dome.

First lady Laura Bush arrived about midday to tour the shelter and meet evacuees.

By 12:50 p.m., the trays of food were still covered and hungry evacuees stood in line, holding empty plates. Rice, beans and jambalaya were on the menu. About that time, volunteers began rolling the carts of food into position to serve.

22. She got the red-ass from the media yesterday...
...and her handlers grabbed her and high-tailed it out of Dodge.

She's as cowardly as her asshole husband!
