Why did the book publisher decide to make Laura Bush

[pnwmom]

look like a vampire? It's not just the makeup and lighting -- she's wearing the collar from Count Dracula on Sesame Street.

1. Popular culture prefers women to wear excessive make up. nt

6. Does it make them wear that collar?

I know that's a vampire collar because I learned it on Sesame Street.

3. They couldn't help it

She always looks the same no matter what the event or circumstance. I've always found it odd.

7. Couldn't iron out the creases from those curtains she's always wearing, I guess.

9. So, she doesn't wear shrink wrap. That's okay. Her clothes are fine. nt

8. She's supposed to look "sporty", I think. Doesn't do much for me though.

I've seen this "controlled tousled" look with 4th graders in their class photos. Too funny.

11. Or maybe they were going for this queenly look?

And got the Count Dracula look by mistake?

Is it just me or does she look like the count from Sesame Street?
