The Bush family reminds me of Thursten and Lovey Howell
They are so entitled that they are completely out of touch with the life of the average middle class person, no less the poor.

Remember Poppy Bush didn't know what optical scanners at supermarkets were? At least that wasn't dangerous.

Now we have Junior, standing in front of the homeless and dying of New Orleans--and in front of the millions of people watching them suffer and die on TV--JOKING about how he had "a little too much fun" in New Orleans as a young man. Junior--offering to rebuilt Trent Lott's house when visiting the Mississipi locales of Biloxi and Gulfport that were decimated under Katrina.

On top of this, we now have Barbara Bush saying that the NOLA refugees are "better off" because they are going to Houston.

"What I’m hearing is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality.

"And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this--this is working very well for them."

What kind of people ARE these?

Rich, insensitive, out of touch.

And stupid to actually say what is on their minds.

1. They are the MOST despicable people I have EVER seen
Lies flow from their forked tongues like honey. Their baby has screwed up for the umpteenth time and they still will not let him be responsible for his own actions. Disgusting, despicable, pigs.

3. The Howells, maybe, but without the comedy.
Only the cluelessness and feelings of entitlement are there.

10. I'm glad. Sometimes things get so absurd that you have to laugh
And this has reached the height of absurdity. These people don't have a fucking clue.

5. They should be exiled to an uncharted desert island...
or maybe placed in a boat with a hole in it.

7. You insult Thurston and Lovey!
They were spoiled and shallow but they did have some endearing qualities. Unlike the Bushes.

"...this is working very well for them." I'd like to smack her ugly, smug face. I wouldn't have a bit of sympathy if something dreadful happened to her & her "beautiful mind" in fact I wish it. I'm sure some will say that makes me as bad as she is. So be it.


on edit: My favorite anti-boosh tee from Project for the Old American Century. They have great stuff on this site!

15. W is maybe 'the movie star'?...always dressing up + trying to look 'beauti
'beautiful'?? or in his case 'attentive' or whatever

Gilligan.....no; he actually works, although he always fumbles

and suggesting 'the professor' is of course a major joke
