Wow, she was giving a great speech about kids and the future generation. She handled it with grace, even giving the protestor a choice to hold the mic.

(16,993 posts)Such a contrast to the monster who preceded her. It's nice to have a First Lady that you can be proud of.

To stand by and allow her husband to pull all the sh!t he's pulled over the years--things that harmed innocent people--you'd have to be a monster.
Bush put elderly people out on the street to build a stadium in Arlington. They owned their houses outright, and lived a decent life. He paid them far less for their property than it was really worth, and they couldn't find comparable housing.
Factor in the lies to start his wars, and the hundreds of thousands of people who were injured or killed, and it sure seems to me that Laura Bush certainly isn't the schoolmarm that she'd like everyone to believe she is.

Same deal with Barack last week: we had to listen to Rand-fan yack three times before somebody finally gave her the heave ho. No wonder Michelle got in the lady's face, no one else bothered. They else just laughed. So anyway, where the heck are the secret service? Did they get sequestered or what?
