The Bush Women

Barbara Bush (the daughter, not the mother) "surprised" the news world today by commenting that she was "glad" that the health bill passed. Sheesh!

Barbara's revelation comes on the heels of Laura Bush, who recently blabbed that she supports abortion "rights" and gay "marriage." Is Barbara planning to sell a book also? Call me cynical, but it seems a bit curious that Mrs. Bush made these controversial statements just as her book was being put out. Can you say "Creating headlines for $$?" That said, it is another reminder of why we need to look elsewhere for truly conservative leadership and definitively close the chapter on the Bush era. After all, how whole-heartedly committed to conservative causes could President Bush himself have been, given his (influential) wife and her radically different views on such important things? Does Harriet Miers ring a bell?
