Yellow Dog sniffs out source of W's compassionate conservatism
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Here's Barbara Bush on the evacuees who were herded into the Houston Astrodome when their homes were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina:
"So many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this -- this is working very well for them," she said.
Here she is again when asked about whether the media should cover the human toll of the Iraq War:
"Why should we hear about body bags, and deaths, and how many?" she said. "It's not relevant. So, why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"
Wouldn't want to offend Barb's "beautiful mind" with ugly realities like homelessness and death, particularly when all of this death and destruction is due to her own son's dangerous, destructive, and brainless policies.
