NY Daily News, "Lowdown" gossip column, by Lloyd Grove:
At Cho show, it'll be hell to the chief
....First Lady Laura Bush..."seems to be much smarter than (Bush) is," (comedian Margaret) Cho told me. "She seems like she hates him — in fact, she seems like she burns with hatred. Her smile is just a little bit too, well, wide. It's more like a grimace."
And since Mrs. Bush is reputed to be a secret cigarette smoker, "I think she's trying to kill him with second-hand smoke."
It's clear that the 37-year-old Cho — who's on the bill of tonight's anti-war concert with Michael Stipe, Rufus Wainwright, peace activist Cindy Sheehan (and, I hear, Moby) — hasn't been intimidated by the ugly reaction to her anti-Bush comments two years ago.
On that occasion, after right-wing blogs attacked her, she was deluged with abusive, profane E-mails — especially for comparing the President to Hitler.
She's more than happy to repeat the offending line: "Bush would be Hitler if he applied himself. But he's just lazy."...
