Lady Laura’s multiple choice dilemma

President George W. Bush (R) and first lady Laura Bush walk across the south lawn of the White House as they return from a day trip to the hurricane-affected areas along the Gulf Coast, in Washington September 5, 2005. Bush, who has faced fierce criticism for slow relief response, visited dozens of Hurricane Katrina victims being cared for at a prayer center in Baton Rouge and promised the country would ‘do what it takes’ to help people get back on their feet.

Things Laura could be thinking:

“Thank goodness a good night’s sleep will dissolve any hint of conscience that is attempting to take root in my barren soul.”

“You may interpret my look of concern as having to do with the thousands of people we just killed. Actually, I’m worried because I said from the beginning we ought to ban media presence.”

“The facial work I had while on vacation means the world to me that I can feel so pretty while affecting grief and concern for my photo ops.”

“I’m thinking if I fall out flat on my back then the world’s eyes would turn to me and the headlines and pictures of Lady Laura collapsing in a grieved faint would save the situation. But I’ve also just realized it would backfire as George would keep on walking…”

    Whoops, it’s happening again, the disappearing comments — I left a few more yesterday that never showed up, especially on this one — I thought that last line was hysterical. George would just keep walking. LOL!

    Yeah, I don’t know what’s up with that. Exasperating that comments are disappearing! I’m going to look for a plug-in to handle the comments feature in a better way hopefully.
