I have this strange admiration for Laura Bush and the way she manages to keep herself above and outside of the workings of her husband's cockamamie administration...yet she manages to appear loyal to him and his party as well. Everyone writes her off as this medicated airhead, but I couldn't disagree more: it takes a lot of cunning, presence and command of the English language to be that measured and precise. She is not vague, she is the master of vagueness.
It's somewhat similar to Dolly Parton's image as a dumb blonde. Yet Dolly, a brilliant songwriter, musician and business woman is neither dumb...nor blonde.

@CuffLinks: I tend to agree with that assessment. I've always been wary of dismissing her as an airhead, when in fact I think she's an extremely intelligent person. The fact that I disagree with their party's politics most of the time doesn't take away from that opinion.

This post is made of awesomesauce dipped in James McAvoy!

Translated into Laura: This idea is made of super mingled with a currently popular movie star!

Translated into Sarah: This American post makes me a-think about a bag o' possums scramblin' like a jittery Democrat, dipped in healthy moose-covered James McAvoy, you betcha!

Translated into Lindsey: All you nice Jezebel women, this post is made of awesomesauce dipped in James McAvoy, or so you whores would like me to think?

Translated into Ann: This post is made of awesomesauce dipped in James McAvoy, who, as a disgusting foreigner, is responsible for Hitler killing the Jews.

I love this post. It's tres awesome. But I just don't understand the support of Laura Bush. Yes she seems like a nice lady. But lots of dictators have been married to "nice ladies". If anything Laura Bush receives a DEEP and I do mean DEEP side eye from me.
Also the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog is my favorite sentence of all time.
PS: Can we get one with prominent Democrats? Obama, Biden, Keith Olberman, Rachel Maddow?

Laura, no one has to respect her decision. She ran for Governor, she was elected, her constituents can certainly voice their displeasure if they wish. Last time I checked, political office in the US wasn't guaranteed by an infallible familial monarchy. Heheh.

@greengrey: I don't hate Laura Bush by any means, but I do think her milquetoast endorsement of Palin deserves a bit of ribbing.
And here it is, brilliantly executed.

Ahh, it's great to see that liberal generosity and tolerance are in full swing. I truly feel sorry for all you people. In two years when you see that Obama is just another huge tax and spend liberal and that he's not the savior you expect you will spend lots of time in therapy seeing why the government is not your hope for life.

There's only one thing worse than a person who gloats and that's one who tries to cover up that they're gloating. The glee and joy will hopefully last, since if it doesn't then I won't care who won the election. At that point we will all lose, no matter who we voted for. Let's be mature and get to working together on issues, rather than acting like our fantasy football team just won. Sheesh.

Libertarian republican here. First, not all people who don't like Obama are racists. That "watermelon patch" comment was disgusting and that person deserves to be gloated upon.

That said, I find the hypocrisy palpable from liberals who get all up in arms when Obama's policies are labeled socialst (an admitted hyperbole) but say nothing when conservative Christians (an admitted intolerant bunch) are equated with the Taliban.

The only semi-liberal in my family, I was told for 8 years that I was a terrorist lover and Anti-American. Now I'm told that politics don't matter, but we'll wait and save your stupid Democrat butts when you screw up the country. As validating as this election was to me personally, the attacks continue. And, yes, since there is obviously no listening on the other end, I'm going to keep quiet and try to save Christmas.
