First Lady to anarchists: 'Be grateful'
2004-08-29
First Lady Laura Bush is ripping Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry for his "absurd" claim that President Bush should have instantly left a classroom after being told a second plane had hit the World Trade Center on 9/11, instead of listening to children read for seven minutes. "I think that's a ridiculous allegation by John Kerry — it's absurd," Mrs. Bush told The Post. "And I think what my husband did was perfectly appropriate. I think it was the right thing to do in front of the children. I think it was the right thing to do in front of the press that were there. And while he was there for those seven short minutes, his staff was getting more information. They didn't have any more information than what [chief of staff] Andy Card had told him when he came into the room."

#2  Laura Bush is GWB's greatest "secret weapon" to win over the hearts and minds and votes of undecided independent voters based on their profile per the Zogby poll posted earlier today.

Profile of undecided voters=mainly middle aged, white, college educated, affluent males.

Laura plays well to that profile of voter. She's smart, classy, and definitely easy on the eyes.

Faced with the choice of trading in Laura, a national treasure, for the mouth-y mouse-y mutt a.k.a. Therezzzzza Heinz Ketchup...Laura wins hands down. Well, duh.

#1   I think it was the right thing to do in front of the children. I think it was the right thing to do in front of the press that were there.

The First Lady repeats herself.
