Boo-effing-Hoo-Hoo, Cry Me A River: "Laura Bush: I Don't Like The "Pounding" George Gets (VIDEO)"
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/04/24/jenna-bush-on-larry-king_n_98407.html

Laura and Jenna Bush continued their media rounds to promote their new book Wednesday night with a stop on CNN's Larry King. Larry managed to eek out some political conversation from the ladies. Laura told Larry she doesn't like it when Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton speak badly about her husband. And Jenna Bush dropped a bombshell by saying she doesn't know if she'll vote for a Republican. Watch the videos of Laura and Jenna Bush and then read the excerpted transcripts below.

VIDEO of Laura Bush on the "pounding" her husband is getting from the Democrats & Jenna Bush on the possibility that she might not vote for a Republican @ the URL above.

Laura Bush transcript:

KING: Laura, has it been difficult putting up with all the flack that your husband has taken? And, you know, low polls, is it tough for you emotionally?

L. BUSH: Well, in some ways, of course, because I want George to be popular. But on the other hand, I know that he does what he thinks is right for our country and that he doesn't think he should try to be popular, that that's the easy way out.

But I also know -- and I've been watching the campaign, just like everybody else has, and it's been great theater -- that he takes a huge pounding from the other candidates, not all of them, not my candidate, John McCain, but I think that is -- that's demoralizing to me. I don't like that.

And for people who are running for this very office, I think it's sort of a good thing for them to think about --

KING: You don't like the way the Clinton-Obama campaign has been run, you mean?

Jenna Bush transcript:

KING: Do you have a favorite between the two, the two Democrats?

L. BUSH: My favorite is the Republican.

(LAUGHTER)

KING: Yours, too, I would imagine.

J. BUSH: I don't know.

KING: A-ha. J. BUSH: But, I mean, you know --

KING: Are you open to --

J. BUSH: Yes, of course. I mean, who isn't open to learning about the candidates? But, I mean, and I'm sure everybody is like that. But I really -- I honestly have been too busy with books to really pay that much attention.

L. BUSH: No, no, the way they talk about the president.

KING: Oh.

L. BUSH: For somebody who wants to be the president, I think maybe it's a good idea not to talk about the president that way. But anyway, that's my advice to them.

2. Good Lord. Has she seen the latest polls? Worst president of ALL TIME.
and she is concerned about a pounding?

She should be glad he has not been lynched.

3. Awwww, Laura finds it demoralizing.
More demoralizing than living with GeeDubya for 31 years? Really?

5. Maybe she has to stand by her man for the sake of the chillrun,
but I can't believe she doesn't know what an ass her husband is and how much harm he has done to this country and the world at large.

14. What an insensitive lot you all are! Do you understand the kind of pressure she's under
so many couches and she has to decide which ones upholstery will supply the material for her mother of the Bride dress.
