Sometimes, it's just so damn hard picking a Republican hypocrite. I mean, we could go a full year just selecting members of the Bush extended family. Well, how about if we narrow that down further and just spend a few months on the Bush women?

In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, we had Barbara and Laura in open competition for who could appear to be a bigger bigoted nitwit while feigning compassion. But we chose to bypass Barbara's remarks about how much the poor black folks from New Orleans must be enjoying their vacation in the Houston Astrodome.

After all, Barbara lets you know, with a wink and a nod, that she'd cut the chain on the slave ships and let all the human cargo sink into the ocean -- "Amistad" style -- if she could. So maybe she's not a hypocrite; she's just being her tactless, crude, plantation-wife self.

As for Laura, we went with her. Okay, maybe you might argue, she's not a hypocrite either because she has a radio receiver in her head and just says what Karl Rove transmits to her. And maybe it's true that she proves the old sexist cliche that behind every brainless man is a brainless woman.

But, we at BuzzFlash, do believe in holding even Stepford wives accountable for their words, and for Laura Bush to call criticism of her husband's disastrous non-response to the suffering and deaths of thousands "disgusting" is a bit -- well -- hypocritical.

3. She is so disgusting...a "sciffuzza" if ever there was one...

...and obviously the more she opens her mouth, the more she shows her true colors.

4. It's nice to criticize Laura.

She'll run over you if she gets a chance.
