Ms. Frog, it’s Barbara Bush I am making fun of here… the one who didn’t want to see photos of the coffins of the American dead coming back from Iraq because it made her sad! The same woman who said the New Orleans refugees were better off being in Texas.

so, it’s OK if I call Ted Kennedy’s brain tumor “Mary Jo” then? He’s done far more damage to the US than anything Bab’s could ever say but I was told it was in bad taste, but that doesn’t appear to matter here.

ok, Barbara might have said stuff I don’t agree with, but she’s somebody’s wife and somebody’s mother (just as soldiers in Iraq are somebody’s sons and daughters) and anyone around who has a mother shouldn’t make fun of her.

Ms Frog, I’m sorry… guess I’m in the doghouse!

Dale, it’s rather worse than you thought. The statement BB made was “Why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?” The one about the Katrina refuges was also classic. “And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this–this (she chuckles slightly) is working very well for them.” I’m surprised they found a heart to operate on.

Barb wire bush,after they got done scubbing down that black gressy gooey mess, all that was left was a BB so they put in a gas pump.So now she’s got more gas than the rest of the family, and not just regular, it’s EXTRA !

count me amongst those who don’t think it’s appropriate to make fun of anyone’s health conditions or surgeries …

well maybe you’ll find some relif in knowing that I didn’t say what I really think.Im kind of like Mike Maloy, beliving the bush’s are a crime family. From grampa prestcot bush who made big money selling out this country in WW2. Did you lose anyone then.HOW bout PaPa bush ,did you lose anyone in So.America,with reagun & bush?Did you know that it’s hard to find anyone over 30 in Nicaragua & El Salvador. Did you lose any one there? There is not one of them no not one that wasn’t raized on treason. this last one should have show you that. All their money comes from BLOOD and none of their own. What you ask for (me not to lauf)I don’t think you know!I’d gladly sit in HELL if I could have a front row seat to watch them all burn. But I would give them water..if they were straped to a board.If your offened then you dont know enough about the bush’s.

senorbullwinkle, it’s not a question of what I know about the Bushes; for me, it’s a question of knowing what’s appropriate to make fun of and what isn’t. For me, illnesses, health problems just aren’t proper gist for sarcasm. That’s just my opinion, and we can agree to disagree.
I think Bush will come to be regarded as one of the worst presidents in our history. I think Cheney is evil, but didn’t make jokes about his needing to be in a wheelchair for inauguration. I think Reagan was likable, but far more disengaged than a president of the U.S. should be which led to some terrible decisions, but I would never make fun of his Alzheimer’s disease. Just my way of deciding what’s right for me.
