i can't believe someone can be so absurd in their reasoning that an 80 year old makes a comment, the white house press secretary comments on it and it somehow is then turned and twisted to be a remark that somehow reflects the character of an entire family.
I think the point is that she's allowed to go out in public and say whatever comes off her medicated head. Not too damned brilliant of them, is it?

See what Nick said in an almost identical thread yesterday about how they would keep the TV remote away from the grandfather.

Btw my mother is 89. Early stages of Alzheimer's and she has a ton more sense that Barbara Bush. And I'm damned sure Babs can afford the best doctors and the most expensive medicines in the world. So I wouldn't play the age card excuse. Cause it don't fly in my house.
