I will miss the comedic value of these folks when they're gone:
Laura Bush doesn't believe bad polls
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - First lady Laura Bush said on Sunday she does not believe opinion polls showing her husband's approval ratings at record low levels.
Interviewed on Fox News Sunday, Laura Bush said she did not think people were losing confidence in President George W. Bush, despite a series of polls showing support for him at its lowest point in his five-year presidency and among the lowest for any president in the past 50 years.
"I don't really believe those polls. I travel around the country. I see people, I see their responses to my husband. I see their response to me," she said.
"As I travel around the United States, I see a lot of appreciation for him. A lot of people come up to me and say, 'Stay the course'."
...
"He's the one that has to make the hard decisions. And, of course, they don't please everyone."
At least she recognizes that he's The Decider. Oh, there is so much here... Have at it.
Oh, Laura, oh Laura:
"I travel around the country. I see people, I see their responses to my husband. I see their response to me," she said.
"As I travel around the United States, I see a lot of appreciation for him. A lot of people come up to me and say, 'Stay the course'."
That's called "being in the bubble," Laura. Being in front of cherry-picked audiences of admirers.
She's as out-of-touch as her mother-in-law, Barbara "Beautiful Mind" Bush and her father-in-law.
Oh, the hoi polloi!
What do they know?
Seriously, comedy writers will cry when these clowns leave Washington. But we'll all be better for it.
