Monday on TODAY with Hoda & Jenna, Jenna Bush Hager said her mother was the subject of a sexist critique before the couple married.

Jenna was chatting with Hoda Kotb about Sarah Jessica Parker's remarks to Vogue about aging in Hollywood and the social media commentary she's seen as she gears up for the "Sex and the City" sequel series "And Just Like That…"

SJP was never that good looking, and hasn’t aged well due to being a heavy smoker.
But she did get paid a lot of money under the table for pimping smoking in SATC.

I guess I’m confused. What is the basis for outrage here?

So Laura Bush was called an “old maid” back in the 1970s. Nobody uses that language nowadays. Why the need to revisit what someone said over 40 years ago?

“I guess I’m confused. What is the basis for outrage here?”

**************

The elites are offended by anyone who doesn’t exhibit fawning worship of them. They expect to only hear words of praise.

Sick people they are.

They got married in 1977. No one was using that term much in those days.

Perhaps no conservative Texan wanted a lib wife who would kill their kids until George came along.

I do. My dad taught me that popcorn kernels in the bottom of the bag are called old maids.
