She glittered in a strapless silver, embroidered...
Obama clutches a copy of GQ magazine with himself on the cover, wearing a jacket, pants, and sandals. Hat tip Drudge. Can you imagine Jackie Kennedy ever being seen in public like that? Or Hillary Clinton, or Laura Bush, or...

From Carolyn Glick : A couple of days ago I heard the news that George and Laura Bush paid a private visit to the wounded soldiers at Fort Hood. They specifically requested that the base commander not inform the media of their visit. They came. They comforted the wounded soldiers and the Fort Hood community for a couple of hours. And then they left. And they never had their pictures taken saluting...
A friend sent an intriguing post from Hillbuzz.org to me. Here's a taste: If there are any of you out there with any connection at all to the Bushes, we implore you to give them our thanks…you tell them that a bunch of gay Hillary guys in Boystown, Chicago were wrong about the Bushes…and are deeply, deeply sorry for any jokes we told about them in the past, any bad thoughts we had about...

And then they left. And they
Good email: Two Profiles in Class This past weekend, Americans were treated to two completely different profiles in class. First there was former president George W. Bush. On Friday night, George and Laura Bush traveled by car to Fort Hood to meet with the devastated families of last week’s tragedy.

Remember the Whitey tape? And the bare arms? And then remember when Michelle Obama’s approval ratings were “higher than her husband’s”? Well, suck on this, Obamabots. Michelle Obama’s poll numbers slide This never happened with Laura Bush. And that’s why George W had the moral authority to lead the country while Obama never [...]
