I don't recall many comments about Barbara Bush's figure...

I don't recall specific comments about her "figure" but more of her overall appearance. She was regularly referred to as "the guy on the Quaker Oats box."

Yes, this is absurb. There are various indices of obseity. Edward's wife is obese (you can tell by the high percentage of body fat). Why do the Dems care? Because they are like a product that is of little value, but they need to advertise it heavily to make sales. A fat woman is a liability, at least to the Dems. If a fat woman supported tax cuts and a strong military, I would send her a lifetime supply of McDonalds double cheeseburgers. Once again, it is the party of diversity that shuns the fat woman.

big boned

I can't remember what comedian said it, but he had a joke about a friend of his wife. His wife said her friend wasn't fat, but big boned. He responded, "I've never seen bone jiggle like that."

I thought his kids were barely toddlers? Or are those grandkids. I hope that's not what you were referring to!

You don't remember the comments about her 'matronly' figure? They also continually commented on her lack of fashion sense compared to Nancy Reagan's, though in the next breath they'd excoriate Nancy for thinking herself better than everyone else.

Maroons.

Hey! We're at war with porkers? Who knew. If we are, I'd say they're winning from my casual observations at Wal-Mart.

This article is just another whine piece. Who cares what Edward's wife looks like? Guys always complain about the frequency of sex, I think they have to comply with some kind of federal regulation. If your marriage is destroyed by real or perceived porker-ness, you didn't have much of a marriage anyway.

Classic victim language. Next we'll have federal affirmative action programs for fat women.

Look ladies, it's a choice. You can't force us to marry you. You can either be the kind of woman we want, or you can be single and die alone in a house full of cats. It's your choice.

Rubbish, people have different metabolisms. I can eat pretty much however I like and my weight always seems to stay in the 190-210 range (I'm 6'3"). Other people of a similar height might eat the same way as me and tend to be much thinner or much heavier.

In any case, from the pictures of Mrs. Edwards that I've been able to find (not many), she looks to be a fairly attractive woman who's perhaps a little on the heavy side of what is considered (unrealistically) ideal in our society.

Yes, but didn't you know that what you marry isn't always what you wind up with? Hell, I know too many men who's wives gained extra lbs over the year and not much that they can do about it. My old lady and I are not married yet and she's been packing them on and then acting hurt when I express any displeasure about it....

sigh.....

We should have won the war on fat chicks by now.

I mean, not like you have to lead them much.
