Barbara Bush hospitalized
Former first lady hospitalized
Posted: 10:26 PM ET
(CNN) — Former First Lady Barbara Bush was hospitalized in Houston, Texas, Tuesday night, according to a family spokeswoman.

Spokeswoman Jean Becker said Bush, 83, was admitted to Methodist Hospital for testing after complaining of stomach pain for several days. She arrived at the emergency room at about 5:30 p.m. (6:30 p.m. ET) and remained at the hospital as of about 9 p.m. (10 p.m. ET).

Jim McGrath, a spokesman for Bush’s husband, former President George H.W. Bush, said all of the tests were negative and that she is expected to be released either later Tuesday or early Wednesday.

And in all seriousness, she's a sweet lady. I wish her well.

15. Yeah..she never did anything to me....except insult my fellow Americans in crisis
when she said the Katrina victims in the Super Dome were having it better than they'd ever had...or something really fucking stupid like that. Y'know...let them eat garbage.

20. She said they were better off after Katrina.
I'll never forget it. I didn't care for her before she said that, but once she said that, it was the third strike. I cannot stand her.

2. All of the test were negative?
They must have been looking for a heart.






I know - I should be flogged.





Babs, honey, don't worry your beautiful mind, all will be well.

24. She got sick thinking about having to look at George Jr.'s drunken puss
more often after he leaves Washington.

Hey, it would make ME sick! :p

Not exactly wishing her ill health, but frankly...who the fuck cares? Keep her away from the Japanese Prime Minister...don't want to repeat poppy's incident.

36. Well......
Her treatment of others and complete lack of compassion for others leaves me little kind thoughts towards her.

Why should I waste my "beautiful mind" on her?

39. So she was nice to you for a record 2.3 seconds...
I'm sure the same can be said about Hitler, Mussolini, Saddam, Stalin and Ghengis Khan and it was actually said about Al Capone.

30. This is where I bite my tongue
or my fingers, as the case may be, because she is old and possibly ill. And I have nothing good to say.

So that's all I'll say.

31. She reminds me of my least favorite grandmother
who was an anti-feminist racist repub and looked just like Babs.

Maybe they'll meet up someday.

32. Normally I try to be compassionate- but Mrs Bush is another story
When she passes away the world will be a better place. She is a nasty and disgusting human being devoid of a conscious, who passed her mental defects on to her spawn.
