"Laura Bush's mission to save Amer. women from #1 killer...heart disease"
This is how her visit with Larry is being billed....I may be cynical, but did Laura just suddenly decide this was her mission?....I mean now that her husband is in shit pollwise, is this just a convenient ploy?...I don't remember hearing anything about her being on this mission before....:shrug:

5. I think she gave that one up for a new mission...
to prevent young boys from joining gangs.:crazy: (George's numbers were tanking then, too.)

4. How ironic. She smokes like a chimney.
While W is chugging from a fifth of Popov hidden in his desk drawer, Laura is puffin' down a pack of Marlboro's out in the rose garden. And she's gonna preach about HEART DISEASE!

:rofl:

8. Oh, so she's going to advocate for quality childcare, a 35-hour work week,
paid family & medical leave? All these things so women can actually take care of their health?

That's so nice of her.

15. Don't forget universal health care!
How many women who due to lack of health insurance, have untreated high blood pressure, a leading cause of heart disease?

9. Her "mission" is to save the Dictator-Tot's reputation
To rally the pitiful few who still are wavering on jumping ship.

And guess what? It ain't gonna work.

16. Um, isn't heart disease the #1 killer of PEOPLE, men and women both?
In fact, my understanding is that men are somewhat more succeptible than women, at an earlier age.
