The left just tries to tear down everything we love. They don't have the House, the Senate, the White House, fewer Governorships, etc. Boy, I loved typing that!

Sally Quinn now dissing the Bush children in a backhanded way, saying that they "have issues" and are "acting out", so that is why everyone identifies with.

Blech.

Well, I absolutely love Laura's gown. I just can't decide if I like this one more than the one 4 years ago. I'll have to think on it. Maybe it's just that she makes everything look good!

Has anyone seen Condi's dress? Red would look gorgeous on her.

"And I heard Sally Quinn make a snide comment earlier in the day. Something to the effect that presidents in the past have guided the social scene in Washington but it's just dead under Bush. You could tell she resents it.

As a taxpayer, I'm glad he's WORKING vs. socializing."

Agree! And, I'm glad he's not blowing all of our tax $s Clinton did on providing food and beverages for all the idiot bloviating talking heads and Hollywood 'stars'.
That said, I wouldn't mind if he did a few more state dinners, etc (I think he only did about 3 last term).

Awwww, my husband was such a good dancer. He could even lead me in a chacha or a tango. Damn, I miss him. I get jealous every time I see a couple dancing.

The Wife just asked me how much I thought they paid for those gowns? I told her, if you have to ask the price, you don't get one.

LOL - my FR Inaugural sweatshirt cost $15 four years ago. My dress for the Ball was a "rerun" from other events.

How cheap am I?

Cheers!

What a beautiful couple they make! And Laura looks simply stunning!........UUUUUUGGGGGHHHHH, sorry I can't even picture Lurch and Teresa competing with this classy couple. Between his orange tan and botox. and her frowsy, dowdy looks and alchohlic haze, it's not even a contest!!!

I believe the society game is to dine at the WH. Quite frankly I wouldn't be inviting these jackals there either. Who wants to invite someone to the WH to be savaged in the press the next morning by them? The press and socialites haven't made much of an effort to do anything for the Bushes. I don't know why they think the Bushes should do anything for them. They are a bunch of ungrateful hangers on.

What a great pic. I loved when Dub took Laura's hand to dance and did that "open hand" thing, as she hung onto it.

How completely ROMANTIC. In your picture, you can see Dub's "open," strong hand. {{{Sigh.}}}

The only good thing I can say about Sally Quinn is that she really dislikes Hillary Clinton.

They showed a side by side of the red gown four years ago and this year's gown.

She's lost weight since then so her figure looks better now, I think. I really like color in a gown typically but she looks elegant and not at all washed out which can be a problem for other women her age.
