When it comes to gay marriage and abortion rights, Laura Bush says she and former President George W. Bush have simply agreed to disagree. She's for both, he's against them.

The former first lady said on "Larry King Live" Tuesday she "totally" understands "what George thinks and what other people think about marriage being between a man and a woman. . . . But I also know that, you know, when couples are committed to each other and love each other that they ought to have, I think, the same sort of rights that everyone has."

"You think is coming?" King asked.

Citing a "generational" shift in opinion on the issue, she replied, "Yeah, that will come, I think."

Mrs. Bush also said she believes abortion should remain legal -- and has held that view for years -- and she recalled telling an interviewer on the day her husband took office in 2001 that she did not think Roe v. Wade should be overturned.

1. Who cares now Laura?

Eight years of dead silence, now she can't shut up.....

Contrition is easy in hindsight.

2. Laura Bush was a Democrat until she married. She probably holds

some basic beliefs.
