Jackie K. had much more class than Laura.

[Maddy McCall]

Laura Bush is speaking in New Orleans right now.

Jackie wore shades often, but she knew when to take them off. Laura is talking about her library foundation, in front of the cameras, with Jackie-style shades on.

What I'm wondering is what she's hiding behind those dark lenses.

[Demit]

1. Or what she's afraid she'll see if she takes them off.

[bowens43]

2. 'Rosanne' had more class then pickles......

[TallahasseeGrannie]

18. LOL

oh, I just can't go THAT far. But NOBODY had more class than Jackie K. Not only was she born into "class" she had it inherently. What a lady.

[dancingme]

3. That "Corrina" sun is blinding

don't you know. B-)

[napi21]

4. There has not been a First Lady since Jackie with as much class

as she had! I remember how a BIG % of females in the US all wore clothing styles "just like Jackie's", even her hairstyle was popular. She was the perfect example of a "First Lady"! The only other one that came even close was Nancy Reagan.

[EFerrari]

7. Little girls, too. My mom bought me a wool suit w/ pillbox hat

and bobbed my hair. lol

Jackie Kennedy was loved all around the world. Nancy Reagan couldn't carry her lunch while Raygun was in office.

[napi21]

14. I didn't mean that Nancy was nearly as GREAT as Jackie,

but that Nancy at least has good fashion sense, and was a gratious hostess at the Wh. ALL the others since have been, hmmmm.....unworthy of a camera? classless?

[EFerrari]

27. Nancy started that whole Red Dress thing. lol

:)

[maddiejoan]

13. Teresa Heinz Kerry would have been.

just sayin'

[napi21]

15. Mmmmm...I don't know about that!

I really like Teresa, and I respect her for not letting anyone get in her way, but she really is a FAR CRY from Jackie! Completely different personality!

[TallahasseeGrannie]

21. I don't think you could compare

ANYBODY to THK... she is her own woman for sure.

[FreedomAngel82]

31. Oh yes just like Jackie

I think why they're both such great people.

[FreedomAngel82]

30. Oh for sure

She would've been a great first lady. :(

[stillrockin]

5. Uh, duh, George . . .

Maybe Laura's done her lids again or overdid the med, alcohol, or whatever she consumes to numb what remains of her brain.

[Greybnk48]

6. Laura Bush is not even close to being in Jackie's league

She's not even in the same Universe. To compare that brain-dead hick to Jackie pisses me off a bit, I must say. Although not your intention.:)

[Mad_Dem_X]

10. She's not fit to shine Jackie's shoes!

Despite what the wingnuts say, Pickles has NO CLASS whatsoever.

[Quakerfriend]

8. She really tries to emulate Jackie's look-

But she looks so silly. I will never forget seeing the get up she wore for the Pope's funeral.

She looked like a cross between the Flying Nun (dressed in black) and someone dressed as Jackie O for Halloween!!

[Maddy McCall]

11. Did you see her get-up while she was in India?

[FreedomAngel82]

32. She needs to get with the times

Look at THK. She's classy but in with the time's and today's fashions for her age.

[Faux pas]

9. LOL old laura wouldn't know what class was if she

looked it up in the dictionary. The the boosh 'men' are bad enough, but their taste in women really sux.

[SidDithers]

12. Jackie Gleason had more class than Laura...nt

Sid

[AndyA]

16. No comparison whatsoever between Jackie and Laura

NONE!

Jacqueline Kennedy had class. She was dignified, kind, caring, and had her feet firmly planted on the ground. She raised two very nice children. She was a beautiful person, internally as well as externally.

Jacqueline Kennedy was the ultimate First Lady. She set the standard by which all other First Ladies are judged. She made America a better place because she was the First Lady.

Laura Bush is a hag. Enough said.

[cali]

17. One thing i know about Jackie Kennedy Onassis

having met her several times, is she would have really disliked the comments on this thread. She was indeed a gracious person. She focused on whoever she was speaking with. She was bright, curious and kind.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

19. You are so fortunate to have met her

She rode her horse near my home in NJ and I saw her ride, back in the mid '60's when she was really chased by the press. But I never met her.

I remember reading Jackie O. and hearing it was a negative biography, but I liked her even better after reading it, warts and all.

[Mikimouse]

20. I don't agree...

Buut, you cannot really compare. It is really like comparing apples (Golden delicious, in Jackie's case) and apples (horse, in Laura's case).:hippie:

[Betsy Ross]

22. Even Mamie Eisenhower is an improvement over Pickles. n/t

[Crankie Avalon]

23. A much more realistic comparison for Pickles would be...

...to compare her with Barbara Bush.

I'd say Laura Bush has a little more "class" than her mother-in-law, and the two have about the same fashion sense (none).

[f-bush]

24. A much more realistic comparison would have been...

Leona Helmsley!

[Marie26]

25. Guilt. nt

[f-bush]

26. You Gotta Be Kidding?

Jackie O was a great First Lady. Pickles is classless. Not only that, she is the only First Lady to have been directly resposnsible for the death of another human being!

[FreedomAngel82]

28. She's always trying to be like Jackie

Notice the style of her clothes. And when she went to see the Pope. So it's nothing new at all.

[Greeby]

29. Mrs. Bush. The world loved Jackie Kennedy

The world misses Jackie Kennedy.

Mrs. Bush, you're no Jackie Kennedy! ;)

[TallahasseeGrannie]

34. Actually, sadly, as I remember

a lot of folks couldn't stand Jackie Kennedy, especially after she married Onassis.

And Laura Bush is nothing if not popular. I'm not getting into whether that is meritted or not, because I know nothing about her and I like to keep the wives, kids, parents, out of it so we can see more clearly through the crosshairs.

[Radio_Guy]

33. Probably hiding bloodshot eyes

She has ben a party animal from way back.
