Laura Bush reached out Mrs. Alito

[raysr]

The drama continues

--snip--Q Do you ever feel like crying when you hear the President being criticized, called a liar, being abused?

MRS. BUSH: Well, no, not really. But I will say I called Martha Alito yesterday to tell her to hang in there. I do think it's really important in the United States for people like Judge Alito to be treated with respect. I think it's very important for the Senate to have a very civil and respectful hearing for anyone that has been nominated for the Supreme Court or for the other jobs that require Senate confirmation.

11. Zain Berjee- exclusive interview tonight at 7

Very dramatic moment when mrs alito broke down - have you ever felt like it?
Mrs. Bush- not really -same story as reported here. My family has been in politics for so long you try to build up.

[petronius]

12. Of course, Mrs. Bush's unsupported assumption here

is that Judge Alito was not treated with respect. The whole point in calling attention to Mrs. Alito's crying is to establish the claim that 'bad people' made her cry...

14. hey CNN........READ this ...........

Laura supported the Smear from the Swift Boaters


WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The Kerry campaign Sunday criticized first lady Laura Bush for what the campaign called her "statement in support of the swift boat smear ads."

The campaign was referring to a new Time magazine interview in which Mrs. Bush is asked about the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth ads attacking Democratic presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry's war record and his comments upon return from Vietnam.

In the interview she is asked, "Do you think these swift boat ads are unfair to John Kerry?"

"Not really," she replies. "There have been millions of terrible ads against my husband."

15. What's good for goosey is good for the gander

Huh Laura? I don't think Kerry was hard enough on little dubby.

[FreedomAngel82]

16. Want to talk about respect?!

How about MY rights Laura? How about me being able to attend college as a woman and get a job and take care of myself and someday hopefully a family? Or how about reproductive rights? UGH!

[Charlie Brown]

17. but Alito has not treated women and minorities w/respect

you reap what you sow, and Alito's harvest is extremely bitter.

[malaise]

18. I don't know who was more stupid

Xanax or the reporter. The reporter didn't think of asking her about the tears of Cindy or other mothers/widows of soldiers killed by her husband's lies. That was an awful interview. Oly their fucking artificial tears matter - well boo hoo.

[Bluebear]

19. Did she pass the poor dear a doll or two?

"Here, Xanax works wonders for me."

20. Do They Buy Their Clothes at the Same Upholsterers?

Or did Pickles lend her one of her spare slipcovers?
