LAT: Mongolian Women Appeal to Laura Bush (WTF???)

http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/wire/sns-ap-mongolia-women-laura-bush,1,1245554.story?coll=sns-ap-world-headlines

ULAN BATOR, Mongolia -- Mongolia may be a democratic nation, but its women struggle to be heard in a country where politics are dominated by males, female leaders told first lady Laura Bush on Monday.

The women appealed to Mrs. Bush for support in their work against poverty, domestic violence and other social ills

2. LAT: Mongolian Women Appeal to Laura Bush
Yanno...when I first read that...I thought I'd be reading about some latent lesbian thing. I was hoping for pictures, too.

I'm very disappointed.

:cry:

7. I'll bet the YAKS are starting to look good to her by now.

"We can serve as examples for our daughters," Bush said. "No matter what we say, what we do will be the most powerful for them."

Sure, show your kids how to be a niquil addict and tolerator the biggest F@#kup in american history.

The woman is a freaking drape. She's walking around drunk on her meds telling women that she and they can be examples... of what, drapes? What's she good for other then walking around in bad clothes. Or standing their like an idiot in bad clothes. She makes drapes look bad.

9. It's sad that these women think that LB could have any useful
insight. She has no credibility- sitting silent while her husband bombs
women and children.

12. Isn't Laura pretty busy carrying out all her promises to the Afgani women?
She is following through on that, isn't she? Just because we haven't heard anything doesn't mean that she's all show and no go, does it?

OF FRIGGIN' COURSE IT DOES. Laura bush**s great empathy for other women is nothing but a fraud.

13. She'll get right on that...
...assuming that what is being asked for is smiling, tacit support of the most anti-feminist agenda in many decades.
