Think about the abuse they went through for eight years, and now we have a whining baby in the WH complaining that he's so maligned, when he's been coddled and has never had to endure the assault that President Bush did.
I'm sure that both he and Laura love being out of the spotlight, doing what they love doing and not getting bashed every day (well, except from Obama and a few angry freepers. ;*)
Laura is such a lovely, gracious person. She took Pres. Bush’s arm as they walked to the memorial, and then guided another of the officials (I don’t know who he was) to stand next to her. Quietly making sure everyone is comfortable and everything is done right. So UNLIKE our present first lady.
They can’t help but be relieved to be away from that “stuff” and be able to live their lives privately. And I don’t think the bashers bother them a bit!
(P.S. Nice to “talk” to you! I don’t get a chance to check in here very often anymore but just had to today.)
