2. Laura was stupid enough to marry the jerk, but I don't believe she's
stupid enough to settle for a measley $1 million dollar settlement.

I think Pickles is no fool. She'll get a bigger chunk.

6. Is this what you saw?
http://phillybits.blogspot.com/2006/10/laura-and-george-bush-to-divorce.html

I think it only says that they have agreed to divorce. It's not a big surprise if you think about it. There were always rumors that she would kick him to the curve once he was no longer President.

13. yeah i saw that one also
i don't think it is any real secret that laura is a classic beard and why should she keep up the gag once he's out of office?

unless they will refuse to provide security to her if she divorces him?

8. Divorce was necessary. Since George will be on the run from the law for the
rest of his stupid greedy life. Maybe Laura preferred to stay in the USA and make a new life for herself. .

20. Yeah, I've heard a few things that would indicate Bush's life isn't so great anymore
If you believe the rumours

- his dad doesn't talk to him.
- he's drinking again
-Laura and him have been living seperate lives for a while. I don't personally think they'd ever officially divorce, but they're probably headed for a lifetime of a marriage in name only.

Personally, I think him and his dad probably estranged (they do have a notoriously difficult relationship) and Bush the elder can't be happy with the cock up Jr has made of things. The drinking wouldn't surprise me. I don't have a clue about the state of their marriage. And we'll probably never know, since Laura's not the type to do a weepy television where she calls out George. Whatever else you think of her, she is discreet.

So, yeah, George's life is a bit of a mess.

23. Yes, I can't quite bring myself to feel sorry for him either
Edited on Wed Oct-22-08 06:56 PM by galaxy21
Every time I even start to feel something close to sympathy (he looks rough as fuck nowadays) I think of the people that are dead because of him.

However, I do understand that he didn't set out to do all this evil stuff. He probably did think Iraq was going to be a piece of cake. Cheney and the Neocons took this dumb guy, got him elected president, filled his head with fantasies of some neo con utopia and he was too naive to know any better. Bush would've been harmless....if he had just kept out of politics.

Dammit, George....couldn't you have just been happy running a baseball team?


You know, Palin should pay attention to the fall of Bush....that's what happens when you get a job you are clearly not qualified for!

22. Rumor had it that Laura was going to cut George loose as soon as his term ended but I guess she just
couldn't wait that long.

Fuck you, "W". In the deepest part of your ass. And I sincerely hope this is just the beginning of the rest of your life in the deepest part of hell. You and that evil, greedy, inhuman piece of shit Cheney.

27. Didn't Laura give him an ultimatum: booze or me. Maybe he finally made his decision.
