"Laura Bush’s love of reading befits her background as a former librarian and teacher. Presidential biographers have recounted that on her first visit to the Bush family home in Kennebunkport, Maine, when her future mother-in-law asked what she did, Laura replied, “I read, I smoke, I admire.”

“My sense of her is that she reads and cares about literature,” Andersen said, “like many women in America who read novels and are married to men who don’t.”"

8. "I smoke"???

Wasn't Laura rumored to be the go-to nickel bag lady when she was in college? I wonder if Laura was referring to that type of smoke. :smoke:

"I admire" is strange comment too when you think about it. Admire what? Good smoke? :wtf:
